The second stop was Deloitte, the second-largest professional services firm in the world, which like other major accounting firms “helps corporations and wealthy individuals avoid tax and indulge in creative accounting,” the Occupy London Twitter says.After Deloitte, activists marched to the Bank of England, where they set up tents on the square.A witness to the protests told Reuters that scuffles had broken out between police and demonstrators, resulting in at least 12 arrests.The protest comes as part of a global day of action with thousands of people rallying in some 400 cities worldwide including Moscow, New York, Athens and Madrid.In February, London police dispersed the Occupy London camp outside St. Paul's Cathedral.
