The OccupyLSX camp is preparing for a hearing at the Court of Appeal on Monday 13 February (10.30am, Court 71, Royal Courts of Justice), where six applications to appeal will be considered. Should these applications be denied, it is understood the City of London Corporation will seek to enforce the possession order granted by the High Court and evict the camp.

Occupy London calls for your support around potential eviction of OccupyLSX

If I should die this very day
Don't cry, 'cause on Earth we weren't meant to stay
And no matter what the people say
I'll be waiting for you after the judgment day

'Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us

my great grandfather was born here and lived here and my mum could claim canadian citizenship if she wanted and they have an underground city 19 miles long full of shops and offices and other consumerist stuff to avoid the harsh winters (and frankly what a great way to hide all that retail nonsense from the beauty of montreal's architecture above ground!)
