It was never going to succeed. The Olympics are coming...
But it made those that have everything already a tad nervous and that can only be good thing. The tents are being dismantled. And the Police stand grinning...
Giles Fraser, who resigned as canon chancellor of St Paul's rather than see protesters cleared out by force, said: "Riot police clearing the steps of St Paul's Cathedral was a terrible sight. This is a sad day for the Church."
Giles Fraser is my MAN OF THE YEAR !!!!

15And they come to Jerusalem: and Jesus went into the temple, and began to cast out them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves;
16And would not suffer that any man should carry any vessel through the temple.
17And he taught, saying unto them, Is it not written, My house shall be called of all nations the house of prayer? but ye have made it a den of thieves.
18And the scribes and chief priests heard it, and sought how they might destroy him: for they feared him, because all the people was astonished at his doctrine.
It's in the Bible Folks !!!
So..Jesus chased the the Money Lenders out of the Temple.. How does this sit with The Religious Right? hmmmm TV Evangelists? It's conveniently ignored isn't it?..... And yet, it's never been more relevant. So lets bring it up.
A Church, the Banks, Protesters and Jesus...
A simple question, really. Would Jesus be with the Protesters or be with the Bankers (Using the Courts and the Police) to kick them out?
I think you know the answer.
Occupy London protesters can be removed from their camp at St Paul's Cathedral, the High Court has ruled.
The protest against corporate greed, which begun on 15 October, has courted controversy and uneasy relations between activists and the church which led to the resignation of St Paul's canon chancellor, Dr Giles Fraser on 27 October.
[Article: Occupy London protesters 'take over' UBS office block]
The City of London Corporation served eviction notices to protesters on 16 November which led to legal action after Occupy London refused to leave.
"We took this action to clear the tents and equipment at St Paul's," said City of London Corporation's policy chairman Stuart Fraser. "We hope the protesters will now remove the tents voluntarily. If not, and subject to any appeal proceedings, we will be considering enforcement action as soon as possible.
What would Jesus do? People are Demonstrating. It's cold but they are still out there. Every day too.
Look it up. Better yet, go down there.
Music by me
Some of them are at the bottom of society. There are others too. Good honest hardy people. People who care. About YOUR World.
This is what I see out there, despite what the Press would have you believe.
It is happening all over he World.
and why is it happening?
People are looking at what is going on more than ever before.
(I don't pretend to be a reporter) This is my personal view.

Today the Police issued a brief linking supporters of Occupy London to domestic terrorism/extremism and probable supporters of Al Qaeda, FARC and even Beluarusian Terrorism lol (not kidding)
Didn't see that out there.
Volunteers in tents on a cold December.. Extremists? No, but they give a damn.
Terrorists? Never heard of Terrorists Peacefully Demonstrating and being open about it...
Lets see how the Media sell this one (It deflects from the Hacking scandals, I guess)
Go down and have a look (Even if it is not your thing)

The camp maybe gone but the ideology hasn't. I'll keep supporting you in my own way!
