Occupy St Paul's protesters' eviction appeal thrown out

An appeal by protesters to keep a camp outside St Paul's Cathedral is thrown out by the Court of Appeal.

Occupy London group challenged the High Court's decision which found the City of London Corporation's action to evict the camp was "lawful and justified".

The decision of the three judges to refuse the application means the corporation is now free to evict the protesters.

Mr Justice Lindblom granted the City orders of possession and injunctions.
