Activists Fill British Empire Crown Display with Cream at London’s Tower

According to reports from the BBC and local media, the incident was organized by the Take Back Power group, which demands that the authorities of Great Britain create a 'People's Palace' as a form of broader democratic representation. The group calls for a change in the political system and an increase in public oversight of state institutions.

Activists entered the Tower area in the morning hours; they approached the protected display case holding the crown and filled it with a mixture of dissolving cream. The protective glass was not damaged, but the event has been assessed as a breach of public order and an oppressive act against a cultural value.

Police reported that hours after the incident, the Tower reopened, and the circumstances of the event are being investigated.
