Monday 19th December will be a big day for Occupy London as the group defend an action brought by the City of London Corporation to prohibit the use of tents at St Paul’s Churchyard.

Their off-shoot group ‘Bank of Ideas’ will also hear if their application to have an injunction against them (by Sun Street Properties) set aside is to be granted.

Laura Taylor, a supporter of Occupy London said: “The OccupyLSX camp at St Paul’s is only part of our movement, but it is where we began: its survival cannot be taken for granted. We appeal to all those who care about Occupy to come and support us in any way they can.”

From 9am Monday 19 December, supporters of Occupy London and the Bank of Ideas are invited to join together at Occupy London’s occupation at St Paul’s Churchyard, near the London Stock Exchange to prepare for the days events.

All are welcome to come and show support, bring placards, banners and gusto.

From 11am, supporters of Occupy London and the Bank of Ideas will gather together at the Royal Courts of Justice (Strand, London WC2A 2LL). There will be a General Assembly taking place with occupiers and others speakers discussing the coming events of the day, the causes for which Occupy London and the Bank of Ideas are being brought to court, as well as future plans.

12 midday – City of London Corporation vs. Occupy London case
The earliest time for the beginning of Occupy London Stock Exchange’s hearing in the case that the City of London Corporation has brought against them is 12 midday at the Royal Courts of Justice. The hearing will be held in front of Mr Justice Lindblom in court 25.

This was on the TV news from California almost a week ago:

Occupy protesters have again shut down the Oakland port – across the bay from San Francisco and the fifth largest port in America. The Oakland Occupy people say their gripe is the 1 pc who keep getting richer and richer. The aim is to shut down all US west coast ports, one by one.

This is radical stuff – certainly more radical than the tent people around St Paul’s Cathedral.

@1 I dunno Bob. Things appear to be hotting up.I read yesterday that a woman threw a pringle crisp, which the police are investigating on suspicion of ‘common assault and battery’. Not a shot from the Aurora I grant you, but nonetheless a step in the general direction.
