They don't have any disagreement with the Cathedral but it's the closest place to Stock Exchange where they could set up camp.

Stock Exchange is shut for the duration anyway, they have moved to another building according to a pal that works there.

You always have your bloody-minded crusties at these sorts of things, but now the well-heeled middle classes are getting involved. They still buy their coffee at Starbucks and they go home for a shower and a warm bed. They're by no means expert at the protest lark. In fact they don't really have much of a clue at all about how to do it. But they are starting to think that they should do it, and that's significant.

I wonder how many of their parents are the ones directy responsible for the crash, perhaps they should have pitched those tents in their own back gardens.
