Occupy London has lost a battle but started a war over public space | Anna Minton

The Corporation of London claims it has no objection to protest, yet the erosion of the public realm makes it all but impossibleThe high court has ruled that the defence of the public highway is grounds for evicting Occupy London protesters from St Paul’s.
