Having managed to bring down a government, protesters in Iceland set their sights on the Central Bank and its chief for their role in the country's financial collapse.
For a second morning in a row, protesters on Tuesday (February 10) gathered outside the Central Bank in Reykjavik banging on pots and pans.
The main target of the protesters was Central Bank Chief David Oddsson who has refused to step down despite calls from the prime minister and the public for him to quit over his role in Iceland's financial collapse.
Hammering on pots and pans has become a regular feature in the anti-government protests that brought together thousands of demonstrators until the government fell at the end of January in what has become known as the "household revolution".
"We wand David (Oddsson) to leave," said one woman taking part in protest.
"We want David Oddsson to resign. It's time. He must understand that it is the will of the people that he should resign. We will not rest until he resigns," said another protester.
Later in the day, Iceland's new centre-left government unveiled a package of measures to help the country out of an economic crisis.
Prime Minister Johanna Sigurdardottir told a news conference the government planned to create a separate company to take over debts owed by 15-20 of the biggest companies which have run into financial difficulties due to the crisis.
Sigurdardottir also renewed her demand that Icelandic central bank governors step down.
"The prime minister's office has authority over the central bank.
But there are laws that hinder me in going further. I want, I can't make him (David Oddsson) take a leave of absence. There are certain laws that apply," she said.
Oddsson, who many Icelanders blame for failing to avert the crisis that led to the collapse of the country's main banks and currency last year, refused to resign in a strongly worded public letter at the weekend.
But the coalition government has said reshaping the central bank is a priority and has unveiled plans to change the bank's structure.
Under a bill in parliament the central bank would be run by a single governor rather than the three-person board of which Oddsson is a member. One of the board members, Ingimundur Sigfusson, resigned last week.
Iceland's banking system collapsed last year under the weight of billions of dollars of debt accumulated over years of overseas expansion and trade in the Icelandic currency virtually ceased. The country has received a 10-billion U.S. dollars (USD) financial aid package led by the International Monetary Fund. Close
