Dirty protest

The untidy protesters in Parliament Square have been evicted, apparently because they are a public health hazard. Yes, they are an eysore. But if you're going to protest against the state, against the government, against a parliament that gives the government its legitimacy, where better to protest? Perhaps, they might say, when Parliament cleans up its act, they will clean up theirs?
