and then to you war peace camp set up in front of london's westminster parliament has been removed by dozens of police officers protesters claim their democratic freedoms and a right to free speech are being violated the very things the government said it wanted to defend when it went to war in iraq and afghanistan. democracy but only on our terms that seems to be the message coming from the powers that be in the u.k. capital as a peace camp is finally removed from the government's doorstep as dozens of bailiffs and police sweeps to clear out the campaign as london's mayor said the demonstrators were making a mess and stopping the public from enjoying parliament square but the protesters insist their crucial message is being muted i would like to see. more primarily i would like to see the aggressive foreign policy that this government has been pursuing over the course was such a long till going back through many go moves. to see. sobering stories. for any reason they've been resident in this focal spot in westminster since just before may's general election mainly calling for an end
