SALVATION ARMY GOES TO WAR AGAINST WESTMINSTER COUNCIL

The Salvation Army along with Centerpoint and other Allied homeless charities are today engaged in battle against Westminster council's astoundingly cruel new law that has made the handing out of food to homeless people or feeding them a criminal offence in the Borough, treating the poorest people in Britain like Vermin with a law that considers them no differently than Pigeons, whom it is also an offence to feed in Westminster.
NEW (or should I say latest) BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR
So in protest the Sally Army, alongside other Allied opposition Charities have taken up counter-offencive positions, armed only with Bread Batons in the first battle of this new 'war'. It is taking place today in Trafalgar square where the Sally's soldiers and their allies have occupied it and are busy defending the helpless by giving out free food to anyone who wants it. A UN no-fly resolution can only be round the corner for these Freedom fighters.
WEAPONS OF MEAL DISRUPTION
That Charities are having to combat such a law at all is something seriously wrong in itself, but I'm wondering if we are seeing a small part of a larger action? A beginning to the clearing of  'undesirable' Human sights from London's center in time for the arrival of the Olympic Games attendants? It has happened at many previous Games after all.
Does that mean that any popular London places and areas with Hotels and Motels will be seeing much the same behaviour?  Locally I can imagine that 'Charlies' day leave policy will be put on hold, after all we don't want badly dressed people wearing strange hats, dancing happily on street corners do we? (I do) And I can see this area getting a rise in aggressive Policing aimed at Youngsters and 'Street hangers'.
I am also of a mind that tells me that some time after the Olympics have finished and gone, Westminster will (ahem) 'bow to public pressure' and eventually let the soup vans return, but only if they have not been able to hold back 'the huge tide' of  undesirables, of course.
But Westminster won't give up easily once they have cleansed the West End, they will no doubt try their hardest to keep those useless eaters away for good.
One other question is, where do Westminster expect all the homeless people to go? No other area has the long built up infra structure to help or cope with the thousands of  wondering homeless who will be looking for somewhere new that they feel safe sleeping in.
