As previously reported, last Saturday saw the start of Occupy Edinburgh, the city centre occupation inspired by the ongoing Occupy Wall Street protest. As protesters gathered in St Andrew Square, a film crew from EMPS, in partnership with The Journal was there to document the movement's arrival in the Scottish capital.

In this video, campaigners at St Andrew Square explain why the Occupy movement is significant, and what they hope to achieve.
