Four people have been arrested after activists smothered apple crumble and custard over a glass case containing the Crown Jewels inside the Tower of London, this morning.
The campaigners, who have identified themselves as members of Take Back Power, then unfurled a sign saying: ‘Democracy has crumbled – tax the rich’.
Take Back Power said it is a new, nonviolent civil-resistance group demanding the UK government establishes a ‘permanent citizen’s assembly – a House of the People, which has the power to tax extreme wealth and fix Britain’.
