If they find even the smallest speck of spray paint, or one single scratch on the brickwork of the cathedral, I hope the police expose them to brutality like they have never experienced before.

But those tonnes of industrial pollution, that no one ever asked for, which has just been cleaned off St Paul's at great expense, was a totally fine form of defacement?
It is that form of underlying, sociopathic, state ingrained "industrial pollution" (both physical and mental) that these people are trying to eliminate - for everyone's good!
Your willingness to support brutality over imaginary graffiti is worrying and uncivilized.

I support brutality anywhere and everywhere where communists/socialists are trying to promote their ideology.

Given this stance, I suspect you simply don't know how capitalism, communism or socialism has been enacted on real people in real life. You could not adopt that engineered 'anti-commie' stance without having been mislead by propaganda from both the Western states and the supposed Communists. None of those ideologies have actually been reflected in the real history, especially not the imaginary Free Trade™ that you no doubt attribute to your own preferred states.
People don't want your violence, stop smoking the Crime Scene Investigation pipe a while.
St Paul's is an excellent location for a protest against wanton money lenders.
If you are pro Usury, then you are anti-Church - in which case, what's it got to do with you whether the Church is marked or not?
Again, read about Usury before you fake defending the Church: historyofusury.blog.co.uk...edit on 18-10-2011 by yampa because: (no reason given)

I'm not defending the church, I'm defending an iconic landmark of our city. St Pauls is a beautiful building, one that has stood the test of time, and the thought of some layabout rentamob socialist scum using it as a toilet, or defacing it makes me sick.
St Paul's Cathedral is to close to visitors because of the anti-capitalist demonstrators camping on its doorstep, its dean has said.
The decision was taken with "heavy hearts" for health and safety reasons, said the Reverend Graeme Knowles.
The Occupy London Stock Exchange movement has been located in Paternoster Square since Saturday after being barred from the Stock Exchange.

And also like William Hague who has a cheek, saying it was the wrong way to go about things. How dare he, if they listened in the first place then there would be no need for protests now would there.

I do wonder if any pressure has come from the Police or the Government to have this Reverend to change his mind.

Why would you wonder that when he's made it quite clear the reasons for his change of heart?
Beleive it or not, people do recognise they have made a mistake of their own accord sometimes. We're not all mindless sheeple
Cable was speaking against a backdrop of an ITN/ComRes poll showing 67% of the British public are now pessimistic about the future of the UK economy, the highest percentage since the index began. Pessimism has increased steadily month by month since the figure stood at 49% this time last year. Just one in five, 22%, is optimistic about the future of the UK economy compared with 37% last October.
The poll found that as a result of the cut, 50% of the public are being forced to make changes to their lifestyle and nearly half (48%) believe their standard of living has deteriorated since October 2010.
Three quarters (73%) say the cost of living nowadays makes them feel concerned about their future and drastically, one in three (34%) agree that things are so bad in Britain they would consider moving abroad.
Less than a third of the public (30%) think the coalition is good for Britain, with half (48%) believing it is bad for the nation. Support has dropped over the course of the year.

And the question then is: should some of the people be allowed to dictate policy? I certainly did not elect them to represent me. They certainly do not represent my views. I disagree with them. So I'd rather the Govt listened to me instead
The City of London Corporation is considering legal action to move the Occupy protesters camped outside St Paul's Cathedral.
Greg Williams from the City of London Corporation told Sky News Online that although the square mile will accommodate legitimate protest, the heavily used public highway "is not a place for camping".
