SQUATTERS LEGAL NETWORK | a legal support network for squatters
SQUATTING FIGHTBACK-from Schnews
In case you hadn't noticed, residential squatting is now a criminal
offence. But wait, before you dash in to hang up yer crowbar – there is
hope yet.
The law has more holes than your average American ambassador and it'll
be a good year before we know exactly how it's going to be interpreted
and enforced. And helping in the fight against Section 144 of the Legal Aid Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO) is the recently formed Squatters' Legal Network.
Currently in the process of collating the effects of the law so far,
the Network is aiming to provide legal advice and support prior to,
during and after any evictions or attempted evictions. To that end they
have an emergency phone number, an email address, a website, a Twitter presence and a band of eager activists – they're also keen for more bods to get involved.
