THIS IS NOT IN THE MSN, even though it is happening today. The police are chipping away at the protesters, removing written signage etc.

How many people are prepared go out of their way to push for change?

Not that many, it seems, putting up with antagonism by the police who were tugging at the tarpaulin ground cover that the protesters brought with them.

I went for an overnight stay on 22/10 and joined two other Nanas from Lancashire as we'd occupied a field near Blackpool for 3 weeks in August and I wanted to experience what was happening. Tina-Louise and her sister Julie had been part of the first Occupy at St Paul's and I'm a relatively new activist and I had a great time with them. We are still part of the anti-fracking campaign and we were promoting that at the grass verge where the camp had moved after the eviction from Parliament Square. There is a lot to follow on Bambuser and YouTube including speeches by various speakers who came and also general assembly meetings were shared if you're interested. They were focussing on solutions yesterday and I believe they've gone in to the House of Commons today so I'm also curious about the outcome from this.
