Homeless squatters
joined
activists who sought to feed them, to occupy a disused bank in
London. The government sent thugs to kick them out, true to its
policy of screw the poor to help the rich; but two of the activists
climbed on a balcony rather than leave.
This shows that the UK state regards the idea of feeding homeless
people on Christmas as a danger so urgent that it warrants an eviction
on Christmas eve to prevent it. (For me, as an Atheist, I don't
particularly care that it was Christmas; I'd disapprove of the
eviction equally much on any day of the year.)
The court ordered the activists be
allowed
to return temporarily to feed the homeless today. I guess someone
decided to try to smooth over resentment over the eviction. I hope it
does not succeed in that aim.
