FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Around 300 riot police and 100 bailiffs staged a midnight raid Tuesday, dismantled the camp, and loaded the tents, placards into rubbish trucks.
While anti-capitalist activists stressed the police had faced peaceful resistance, the British media reported that 23 protesters have been arrested.
Occupy London protesters have camped on the churchyard since October 15 to demonstrate their opposition against the financial inequalities of the British government. It was part of global movement inspired by the New York “Occupy Wall Street” movement against corporate greed.
Promising that it was only the beginning of their widespread move against capitalism, Occupiers are now considering a cathedral suggestion to hold debates and meetings outside the church once a week on Saturdays.
The eviction came after a Court of Appeal rejected the occupiers’ appeal against the eviction order, following a long-running legal challenge.
Giles Fraser, who resigned as St Paul’s canon chancellor in opposition to evicting the camp by force, expressed his disappointment after seeing the tents were destroyed.
“Riot police clearing the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral was a terrible sight. This is a sad day for the Church,” he said.
However, Mayor of London Boris Johnson said that the removal of the occupy activists from the campsite was “the right thing for London.”
“I’m glad that finally the law has taken its course. My interest is in the economic interest of the city and I want to make sure the businesses in that area can flourish,” Johnson said.
The protesters have just moved to a few miles north in Finsbury Square, Moorgate, central London, and promised to continue their protest against the capitalism, social inequality, unemployment and the gap between rich and poor.
