WirelessFM still rocking and more DJ's just arrived....as the eviction time draws closer the atmosphere is changing.The stress and anxiety are tangible and vans are still being loaded with resident's posessions. Treasured articles that can't be found a storage space are being discarded and there has been a lot of tears this evening.

One elderly and very poorly resident who should be safely sleeping somewhere safe warm and dry is refusing attempts to persaude him to get into a car. His children were born on this street and he has every right to stay he says.

Allegedly the Council has implied that people like him have made themselves intentionally homeless!

how can that be?

some residents' right of appeal in the courts has also been taken away......where is the justice in that?
