Occupy London protest St Paul's Cathedral camp eviction under way

Occupy London protest St Paul's Cathedral camp eviction under way

City of London Police moved in to remove protesters from the Occupy London site at St Paul's Cathedral during the night.

Occupy London was last week refused permission to appeal against a High Court decision to allow their eviction to proceed.

The Court of Appeal's decision meant the City of London Corporation was free to clear the site.

Occupy London, which campaigns against corporate greed, set up the camp on 15 October 2011

The High Court decided that the City of London Corporation's move to evict the camp was "lawful and justified".

The corporation was granted orders of possession and injunctions by the court.
