Estate agents are destroying communities. They are destroying London.

Foxtons, one of the most visible (and most unpleasant) will be picketed as part of a week of action against estate agents.

Lets stop moaning about housing issues, and begin to act! The sooner we stop the likes of Foxtons from operating in our communities, the sooner an affordable London could be built.


Think estate agents are vile, dishonest liars?

Been ripped off by them, or are just fed up with them driving up house prices in your part of town?

Come along and tell one of the worst of the lot, Foxtons, what you think of them.

Foxtons Islington branch at 355 Upper Street will be picketed from 3pm - 7pm on Monday 3rd March.

Stop building HOUSES! And stop calling them homes!!!

Technically, no, you don't have to live somewhere, you can be homeless. Which is horrible.
Remember, a lot of house building is fuelled by the fact that these days a lot of people want to live alone Garbo-style, at the expense of the environment and everyone else. Try and share your house, if you have one.

The soul has many mansions...

The only ladder you need is to
take the FOR SALE board down...

Foxtons' chief executive Michael Brown, previously European counsel for collapsed energy giant Enron, is expected to stay on.
