A group of Anglican clerics have called on St Paul's Cathedral to fully explain why praying Christians were dragged by police from the steps of the famous landmark during the eviction of the Occupy London Stock Exchange camp.

A new dean of St Paul's Cathedral has been appointed nearly five months after his predecessor resigned in the wake of the row over anti-capitalist protesters camped outside the landmark church.

The demise of the Occupy camp outside St Paul's Cathedral was long overdue. That is not to say it should never have been there at all. The protest that the police dismantled late on Monday night was loud, scruffy and angry. And embedded in its sometimes incoherent messages was a core feeling of dissatisfaction which spoke to many struggling to make sense of the most severe financial crisis since the 1930s. A world in which the richest few grow ever richer, while everyone else feels the squeeze cannot possibly be justified, and Occupy can take credit for providing a focus for a much wider concern.

The tents have been cleared – but what now for the protesters, or for St Paul's Cathedral?

Anti-capitalist protesters have warned that they will not be "derailed" after their camp was cleared from outside St Paul's Cathedral.

Almost 100 people have been arrested ahead of the Olympics and all tents and encampments will be banned from the Games, the Home Secretary said today.

Olympic protests have a long history. In 1908, when Britain first hosted the Games, Irish athletes boycotted them due to the refusal of the government to grant Ireland independence. The 1968 Mexico event produced one of the most potent images of the civil rights movement, when US runners Tommy Smith and John Carlos gave black power salutes on the podium.
