Police Raid Glasgow Squat Housing Climate Activists Protesting COP26
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Elsewhere in Glasgow, police reportedly used a battering ram early
Monday morning to break into a disused former homeless shelter that had
been converted into a temporary squat for climate activists. Witnesses
described Metropolitan police and Welsh forces going from room to room
with batons drawn. The officers' conduct reportedly shocked Scottish
police who arrived on the scene soon after the raid. Activists say
they've since reopened the space. After headlines, we'll go to Glasgow
for the latest on the COP26 climate summit.
