Banks were warned on Wednesday to take security precautions to protect their staff after vandals attacked the Edinburgh home of Sir Fred Goodwin, former chief executive of Royal Bank of Scotland.

A group claiming responsibility for the attack later e-mailed the Edinburgh Evening News warning of further action. One of the messages read: “We are angry that rich people, like him, are paying themselves a huge amount of money, and living in luxury, while ordinary people are made unemployed, destitute and homeless. This is a crime. Bank bosses should be jailed. This is just the beginning.”
