Occupy London @ St Paul
 
We were very curious about all the tents and people camped out around the south side of the cathedral. From the first day, the protestors were loud and rather obnoxious, though during the day you hardly saw any of them. We walked into the “Information Tent” and talked to a well spoken lady who told us that the Occupy London movement stemmed from the Occupy Wall Street theme. They were originally planning to camp out in the London’s financial center but were promptly removed by police so they moved to the foot of St. Paul’s. When the police came to evict the protestors, the Dean of St. Paul’s said they should allow them to remain, there they have lived since October 2011. The movement is designed to raise awareness about social and economical issues as well as governmental responses to the cries of the needy.
