SQUASH are currently busy planning a campaign to repeal section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill – the clause which criminalised squatting in residential properties.
We aren’t going to say much more than that for now but we have launched a petition which should give you an idea of some of the arguments we will be using.
Sign the petition here – it has already received over 1500 signatures in just over a week.
