Occupy 'LIBORate' Barclays bikes in protest of interest rates scandal [PICS]

Members of Occupy London have 'LIBORated' Barclays bikes across the capital in protest of the recently revealed interest rates rigging scandal. 

Traders at Barclays submitted false LIBOR (London interbank offered rate) figures in what has been called one of the greatest economic scandals of the last century. 

Public outrage continues to simmer, with many people even taking the decision to move their money from main banks such as Barclays, Lloyds and Natwest, to smaller organisations such as Nationwide and Co-op. 

Occupy have chosen the now iconic 'Boris bikes'  as the host of their protest, covering the Barclays logo with a yellow sticker reading 'Liboration Occupy'.  

The protest group are calling on people to sent them pictures of the newly branded bikes as they move across the the city.
