Naked Man in Whitehall shows us humanity

A pic I found - how could he have been dangerous? - It is pure humanist art!
I was actually witnessing it as it happened: On approaching from Trafalgar Square, we initially walked freely. We stood close to the statue and the man who then started to take off his last remaining item of clothing (black underpants) the Police started to FORCE the spectators back, although the naked man was evidently unarmed and harmless. The Police were barking out orders to move on and that we had no business here. Mounted Police were also "driving" the spectators back. Very nasty experience, when we were watching a defenceless, naked man. The cordon was driven further and further back, to all of Whitehall. All the naked man did was, to actually make us laugh in appreciation and show that there is life in Cameron's corporate lands: Government cuts are destroying all "lifeblood", and to see this was reminder for both "humanity" (the climber) and seeing that we live in a State of fear and private capital corporatism. Thank you for a day with a difference.

And look at the law! Awful!
