Out Of The Squats And Into The Streets
SQUASH campaign | 28.10.2011 13:42 | Occupy Everywhere | Culture | Free Spaces | Social Struggles
The Government wants to sneak through the criminalisation of squatting, it will be voted on in Parliament this Tuesday 1st November.
Squatted sleep out
Over 95% of responses to the ‘consultation’ on squatting were against further criminalisation, despite this the government is still going ahead with their proposals - effectively bypassing democracy.
SQUASH have tried engaging with the democratic processes but despite overwhelming support to not criminalise squatting we have been ignored.
Our only rational response now is to call for people to TAKE ACTION. We have been forced into this position. See you on the streets!
