     Clegg policy group opposes squat criminalisation

The UK government will soon enact a law to criminalise squatting in residential buildings despite 95% of responses to its 'consultation' opposing any further legislation.

The legislation will have impacts on the most vulnerable people in society, will empower unscrupulous landlords and will burden the justice system, police and charities.

The Squash campaign provides resources on these impacts to raise awareness on the matter.
