"it
can disappear and then re-appear in the blink of an eye,
faster than you can say, 'baliffs?!'
So are you with us?"
Now you
may be asking Yourself why squat at all? Some people think
squatters are dirty people...urm yeah, only sometimes. anyway,
what we want is a world where big business's don't run our
lives, where we aren't plastered with adverts, where we can
make free choices and live together in equality. sound nice
doesn't it?
Well
squatting is a way to take back the space that has been stolen
from us by profit makers who want to develop grotesque yuppie
apartments or shops where we buy crap no one wants. We want
to grab back our space and say LOOK what we can do with it,
we can be creative and inventive, we can create space that
is free to all. People can actually have a say in what happens,
its a way of empowering ourselves and showing how boring most
of the city is. i mean, what can you do apart from spend money?
oh I'm sure you can spend it on many things, but how much of
that shit do you actually need?
Well
i could rant on about capitalist nature, consumerism and the
destruction of our planet...but here's some nice pictures of
squats in stead....
Also
a good history of squatting can be found here.
