Watch: Protester glitter-bombs the European Central Bank President Mario Draghi

All that glitters is not gold standard.

By Media Mole

Mario Draghi, President of the European Central Bank and FT poster boy, has been glitter-bombed.

A protester jumped onto the podium during a news conference and unleashed a cloud of glitter and papers on top of the President.

Apparently she yelled “End ECB dictatorship!” while she threw the glitter, which is an inspiring rallying cry if ever this mole has heard one.
