Buzzin Disgrace

A housing block in Clapham, South London was taken over by 300 squatters, who have made the lives of the local residents a misery.

The squatters, not only the UK but from Italy, Spain, Poland, South Africa, North and South America, Canada, Germany and Mauritius, say they are not scroungers, that’s after they have broken into someone else’s property and wrecked it at a considerable price to the tax payer I might add.

Local residents are furious at council officials for not securing the property properly, after suffering weeks of all-night, rowdy parties, lighting bonfires, covering the area with discarded furniture and rubbish and covering the place with graffiti.

The block of 45 flats belonged to a private owner who had leased it out for temporary accommodation, but just before the property was due to be handed back, the squatters had heard about it and moved in.

Residents had started to feel unsafe in their own homes with strange people hanging around and cars coming and going at all times of the night.

The squatters have defended their right to occupy the flats and had apparently offered to pay rent, yeah right!

Many of the squatters claim not to be able to afford the rent that is being asked as it’s too expensive!  Get a job then, why should you be any different to anyone else!

I would imagine that most of those people are receiving some sort of benefits, and if that’s the case some of it should be used to pay for the damage that now needs to be repaired etc.

These people are not only trespassing but stealing, they have taken something that does not belong to them, surely these laws are in place for a reason.
