Protests to be held outside BOI EGM

A protest is being held today outside an EGM of Bank of Ireland shareholders, who are to decide if they will lend money to the Government to cover the cost of last March's Anglo Irish Bank - now IBRC - promissory note payment.

The 'Anglo: Not Our Debt campaign' says the €3.1bn sum is an illegitimate debt, arising from the speculative activities of certain bankers.
