A few months ago, the Spanish anti-capitalist activist group flo6x8.com slipped into one of the offices of Banco Santander in Seville.

Activists planted seven ‘transistors’ across the bank to play music.

And then the Rumba dancing started.

Admit it, we’re all cringing at the the thought of the UK equivalent coming soon to an RBS near you….

……the Chav conga with Chas and Dave played on tinny mobile phones ;)

Absolutely brilliant.

Good link, Sunny, but isn’t that Flamenco?

You probably know more than me on the matter charlieman…

I like the bit with the cow circling round the security guard. Thought he was going to get ‘charged’!
