There's a previous video of an incident from about a week ago where a few of them went into a church and started verbally abusing the vicar (and causing distress to the parishoners) because his church was allegedly helping refugees. The police did turn up on that occasion.
I suspect that when you cross the literal threshold into extended trespassing in privately owned buildings, the police are gonna view that as more in the realm of violating ye olde sanctity of the castle, whereas assholish parking violations are more just an abuse of the commons of the type people are more accustomed to tolerating on an everyday basis(*).
(*) And this is not neccessarily an outrageous double standard. If some drunks from the local pub all puke on my lawn one night, I'm gonna be pissed off, but still perceive it as much less a magnitude of threat than if they wander into my kitchen to puke in the sink and refuse to depart when asked.
Interestingly but irrelevantly, one church in Cardiff continued to meet for worship during the Covid lockdown and had its worship interrupted by the Police!
