An anti-capitalist camp outside St Paul's cathedral in London was cleared by police and bailiffs yesterday, ending a four-month protest. Here is a look back at this and other protests in Britain the last year:

November 2010: About 55,000 students take part in a demonstration in London against government plans to raise university tuition fees.

A small group attacks the building housing the headquarters of the Conservative Party, smashing windows and spraying graffiti in the foyer. A student is jailed for throwing a fire extinguisher from the roof.

December 9, 2010: Protesters attack government buildings and damage a car carrying Prince Charles after parliament voted to raise university fees.

March 26, 2011: Hundreds of thousands of protesters join a rally against the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition's austerity plans.
