Harrods sale opens amid anti-fur demo
28-12-2008
Hundreds of bargain-hunters braved the cold as luxury London retailer, Harrods, opened its post-Christmas sale, amid protests from anti-fur campaigners. Mezzo-soprano, Katherine Jenkins, opened the department store in Knightsbridge. The boos and chants from those taking part in the protest, organised by the Coalition to Abolish Fur Trade, were soon drowned out by clapping and cheering from would-be shoppers who queued overnight. Some came from as far afield as Slovenia.
