A shocking protest at one of Britain’s most iconic landmarks has sparked global attention.

In this episode, we break down reports about the December 6, 2025 incident at the Tower of London, where four people were arrested after activists targeted the display case housing the Imperial State Crown part of the Crown Jewels by throwing apple pie and custard at it.

The group behind the protest, calling itself Take Back Power, claims the action was meant to force the government to establish a permanent citizens’ assembly with the power to tax extreme wealth, declaring that “democracy has failed.” Authorities responded by arresting the protesters on suspicion of criminal damage and temporarily closing the Jewel House.

Officials later confirmed that the Crown Jewels were not damaged.

We also examine the broader context behind the group’s campaign, including reports that this was their second protest in just a few days, and the growing debate over inequality, protest tactics, and where the line is drawn between civil disobedience and criminal action.

Was this a powerful political statement or did it cross a line?
