Occupy London Get to Stay at St Pauls

Speaking yesterday on the halt of legal action against the camp the bishop of London said "the decision had been unanimous.......today's decision means that the doors are most emphatically open to engage with matters concerning not only those encamped around the Cathedral but millions of others in this country and around the globe."

Ken Costa, investment banker has been asked by the bishop to "spearhead an initiative reconnecting the financial with the ethical," with the support of figures within London's financial world, the Church of England and the public sphere.

The Occupy London protesters said their cause had never been directed at the cathedral staff, but was about "social justice, real democracy and challenging the unsustainable financial system that punishes the many and privileges the few."
