Protester Jumps on Table, Throws Confetti at European Central Bank President 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
A protester opposed to the austerity policies of the European Central
Bank interrupted a news conference by the bank's president, Mario
Draghi, in Frankfurt Wednesday, jumping on a desk in front of Draghi and
showering him with confetti made from a statement condemning the ECB's
neoliberal policies. Josephine Witt wore a T-shirt which read, "End the
ECB dick-tatorship."
