https://www.gov.uk/squatting-lawSquatting is when someone deliberately enters property without permission and lives there, or intends to live there. This is sometimes known as ‘adverse possession’.
Squatting in residential buildings (like a house or flat) is illegal. It can lead to 6 months in prison, a £5,000 fine or both.
So a very marginal improvement on Dismal Dave’s sit-in at Glastonbury Town Hall (until chased out by the caretaker) but I can’t see that much if anything has been achieved. The property is empty and secured as it was before Crabby’s visit.The house is uninhabitable
All that happened is that the mortgagee's security firm took their eye off the ball for a few hours. But now it has been sold, it is once again a domestic dwelling and occupation is criminal. This will still take time to work its way through the courts but the outcome is inevitable.
Simon Pinnock question, how have thay taken back the property when the cops are making them put the shutters back on.
Robert White Simon Pinnock there's a good reason why we done what we done, it was to show people there's nothing to fear when you stand up to them.
Ah... This will be the same principle that was at work when David "Smack-Rat" Robinson and his legally lawful webbels seized Glastonbury Town Hall while it was open and surrendered it only once their demands were met or the cleaning lady arrived and said "Oim sure you are all standing under magnum whatever moi luvver but oi 'ave work to do so youm can all bugger off"... Whichever came first.
I would imagine he would soon be applying to the Kommon Lore Klown Kort to have his licence restored if he gets involved with this crap... Obviously not the sharpest tool in the box.Jon Whiteford Give me a few weeks, waiting for my door supervisor licence, then you will have free security.
I would also be willing to help out in the BCP con-cil area
For those unfamiliar, BCP is Bournemouth, Christchurch & Poole, not known for being adjacent to North Kent where our bankrupt debtor had all his borrow-to-buy-to-let properties.
His place on the other hand...What's the average house price in CT11 0AQ?

Due to the internal condition of the property no viewings will be conducted.
It doesn't take long to "run into problems" BUT English law gives you wide latitude before an actual repossession is granted on a residential property that is your primary residence, especially if there are children living there. More than enough time to organise an orderly sale or renegotiate with the mortgage company or have an interest only holiday during a period of claiming universal credit. Been there done it. Buy-to-Let is a completely different matter. That is a pure commercial proposition.CrankyBoomer wrote: ↑Wed Mar 11, 2020 8:35 am That said, if someone loses their job and are out of work for a while and miss a number of payments it wouldn't take long to run into problems with the mortgage.
Yeah Bob... You keep kidding yourself that being barricaded in a house waiting to be thrown out into the gutter is like waiting to go on holiday.Robert White
