London protesters served with eviction notices

[FarCenter]

London authorities said Wednesday they have served eviction notices on anti-capitalist protesters camped outside St Paul's Cathedral, telling them to pack up within 24 hours.

"We can confirm that this step has happened," a spokesman for the City of London Corporation told AFP when asked whether the notices had been served, after a similar New York protest camp was torn down by police this week.

The corporation, which is the local authority for London's financial district, had announced on Tuesday that it was restarting legal action against the protesters, having earlier halted it for two weeks.
