Quite a scary thought. Even if it is only intended for the Olympic games (which reminds me heavily of Chinas approach to crowd control), it's a fair bet that it'll continue afterwards.
If it is only intended for the duration of the Olympics, why the need for a ban on tents? Why the need for the banning on banners and the like?
And why the need to ban the feeding of birds?

Tents don't belong in our city centres unless someone has been murdered or they need to cover up an open manhole. You can't see what goes on inside a tent and there's a risk - however small - that someone could be making a bomb inside one.
As for the birds - feeding them attracts them in large numbers which spreads disease and makes them shiit everywhere.

Now I KNOW you're just a troll.
Let me see how many tents I've been in that have had safe enough areas to make explosives (and I've been in a lot of tents over the last thirty or forty years).
Erm, a rough estimate would be 'none whatsoever'. And why only in those two places?
I assume birds in other parts of the country don't spread disease?
How about the banners and loudhailers then? Are you expecting exploding placards that shower the city in Anthrax? |

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
When you rescue a dog, you gain a heart for life.
Handle every situation like a dog. If you can't Eat it or Chew it. Pee on it and Walk Away.

The way to deal with that is to tell them every time you leave the house - there is no definition of 'away' that they can give you.
They'll soon get fed up with you.

I'm sure the political class are privately overjoyed that the Olympic Games has provided them with the perfect opportunity to enact draconian laws preventing embarrassing protesters (many of whom have been let down by successive governments and harbour legitimate grievances) from occupying areas within the capital. Of course, the true test will be whether such laws are repealed after the Olympics - or will some other trumped up pretext materialise out of nowhere to replace it?
