Campaigners issued legal proceedings against the Mayor in an attempt to force him to allow the feeding of the 1800 birds. The Save The Trafalgar Square Pigeons action group fed the birds daily at 7.30am, with Mr Livingstone's agreement, since 2002. Under the programme, which was designed to ensure a humane reduction in pigeon numbers, the amount of food was abruptly stopped in June.
Ann Mann, the group's spokesperson, said campaigners had been reassured that the feeding programme would be reduced without starving the birds. "It's unacceptable that the birds should starve to death," she said.
