London, UK. 9th April, 2016. The remaining occupiers of the Carnegie Library since March 31st fighting Lambeth council's plans to turn the building into a fee-charging gym run by Greenwich Leisure Ltd with an just unstaffed lounge with books emerged this morning to a huge welcome from over a thousand campaigners. They held a brief rally with songs and a speech ; although forced to leave the occupation has been succesful in raising support and publicity for the campaign. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
