BBC News - Calls for RBS protesters to pay Edinburgh policing bill

The cost of policing protests at the Royal Bank of Scotland headquarters in Edinburgh should be recovered from the protesters, a city councillor has said.

Councillor Whyte said: "We should look at all options, and where there are options to go to the people who have put on the event, where they have not co-operated with the police, where they have deliberately gone out of their way to be disruptive and to do damage to property in the city, we should be seeking to recover costs if that is at all possible.

"Edinburgh is very welcoming as a city but I don't see why the people of Edinburgh and the wider Lothian and Borders should have to have their policing service reduced in future years because some protesters come here and choose to take illegal action."
