London has been invaded—by super-yachts. The billionaires’ massive boats have turned up in town as the Olympics gets underway. Up to 100 of the yachts, belonging to the likes of Bill Gates and Roman Abramovich, set sail for the capital.
Around 60 lecturers and their supporters protested at the University of East London today (Wednesday) against management plans to restructure the way they work.
Olympics protesters won’t back down
Activists in east London are preparing a Counter Olympics demonstration for Saturday of next week—in defiance of Transport for London attempts to ban it.
