A notice sent out to businesses in the City of London has listed the
protest movement among groups such as al-Qaida and Farc

further excerpts :

A statement from the Occupy London camp said: "The reference to 'suspected
activists' seems to demonstrate a disturbing loss of perspective.

*"Activism is not a crime and the desire to participate in democratic
decision-making should not be a cause for concern for the police in any
free society.*

*"An institution that confuses active citizens with criminals and equates
al-Qaida with efforts to re-imagine the City is an institution in grave
danger of losing its way."*
