Nabarro’s smart London offices are being redecorated by a poo-wielding madwoman.

Over the last couple of weeks the ladies loos on the second and third floors have been repeatedly made over with what an insider refers to as an “impressive amount of excremental redecoration”. It is unclear quite what this dirty protest is meant to achieve, other than making life even more miserable for some unfortunate cleaner (who at least can take some comfort in earning more than lawyers at Lovells).

One source suggests that it’s a complaint over the replacement of loo roll with greaseproof paper and the closure of the canteen in the evenings. A spokesman for the firm would only say that "it is a sensitive and private issue that is being handled internally. It is not our policy to discuss personal matters relating to our staff."
