According to a friend of mine who was at Finsbury Square earlier, there has now been legal proceedings against them and they will be evicted on Friday. He will be going back there to observe what happens on Friday.
 
A photographer called Jules Mattson has tweeted some scary stuff: "@julesmattsson All gone mental, bailiff punched me in the face and tried to run me over with car, then tries to run over 12 people #bankofideas" @julesmattsson We had his car stopped, police pushed us all away and helped him drive away after multiple assaults #bankofideas"​

The Bailiff is said to have been recognised by many as a regular on EDL demos. A fascist being paid to be a fascist functionary, paid to do what he enjoys. Lucky geezer.​

That Jules Mattson is I think the son of the famous Paul Mattson (I think I have his name right) also a photographer of things political. Jules himself got into an argument with the police at a public army parade last year or the year before. He aquitted himself well and made the police look silly in court, from memory. I hope he is alright and has pictures of the bailiff.
 
According to Mattson the bailiff has now been arrested for assault and criminal damage, Mattson wants to press his own charge(cps allowing) and a civil claim against the firm. Off twitter btw, i don't know him personally.
 
Bank of Ideas eviction, Occupy London protestors and media assaulted by bailiffs, Police fail to act and uphold duty of care

check Bank of ideas website....
tbh I did post a direct link to the article.. but in hindsight... its maybe not such a good thing to have the youtube vid above published here... Knowing some of the folk involved and criminal proceedings being engaged... perhaps best not to give the wankahs any wriggle room?
 
Probably a bit late now, the video has been on the Guardian website all day, RT have shown it, its already out there for anyone with an interest. The bailiffs firm have withdrawn their statement that he was acting in self defense, guess they'd rather lose an employee than a contract.

yup.. perhaps im erring too much on the side of caution... i have put a shout out that the vid is edited.. blurring faces etc....
just concerned..

btw: any more word from the london crews.. gone a bit quite today?
 
Occupy London have lost their appeal, according to the news which was on in the pub.

So, does that mean a fight to the bitter end, or are people going to pack up and go home peacefully?
 
Im hearing mixed reports.... some peaceniks are talking about spreading 'rose petals' :facepalm: Though some are saying they will stay on...

A good point made earlier by an #occupy spokesperson was the fact that there are a number of 'vulnerable' people that will need support if the camp is cleared.... The City of London as yet havent given any timescale... If its a sneaky 4 a.m attack, the #occupy crew would not be able to engage 'professional' support services.....

Kinda ironic that the appeal* was lost on the same day as London is experiencing 'security practice drills' for the Olympics...

*they were denied the right of appeal as it goes... they didnt lose an appeal...
 
Tonight – 7pm Wednesday 22 February – Stay or go? General Assembly at OccupyLSX

Occupy London will hold a General Assembly focusing on the planned future of the Occupy London Stock Exchange occupation. This special GA will take place at 7pm tonight by the steps of St Paul’s and include speakers presenting each side of the argument, with the overall intention of making decisions regarding the future of the camp. As with all Occupy London’s General Assemblies, this GA will be open to press and members of the public.

Occupy London's grounds for appeal were dismissed today. Here's a statement from John Cooper QC:

"“The five day trial and the hearing last week in front of one of the most influential courts in the country has firmly established Occupy as a leading and influential force in public debate. The legal proceedings recognised their integrity, determination and influence for good in modern Society.

Of course my clients are disappointed that in accordance with the strict interpretation of domestic law, they have not prevailed today but they do not regret one second of the chance afforded to them to make their case and challenge the approach of the Corporation and the Church.

My clients will now be urgently considering their next legal steps with their legal team and will, we anticipate, be bringing their case to the European Court of Human Rights to give that Court the opportunity to consider the state of public protest law in Britain.”

Professor John Cooper QC will continue to advise pro bono."

Some cock called "Dave" on the BBC at the moment going on about how everybody will be sorry when their children are microchipped in ten years' time. They would of course pick the worst.
 
He thinks the Catholic Church is a great institution, except that they don't have anything to do with this anyway. Did some random pisshead get in front of the camera?
