Sorry for double posting before, first comment seemed to take half an hour to go through...

Latest update is that cops scaled down to between two and five in the last hour and have just been stood across the road with two bailiffs and the janitor. No attempt at entry so far.

Still several squatters on the roof wearing masks, and a few people still outside, but not as many as before.

Passing cars have been supportive, with one woman apparently saying "don't move, stay strong!"

And the house over the road near where the cops are standing playing Public Enemy, Rage against the Machine and CRASS loadly through the upstairs window! Last we heard the Autonomads had just been requested, but folks on the roof are after black paint to make signs to save shouting requests across the road and food is also welcomed (vegan if possible).

Photos from the day due up shortly...but more to come as they haven't gone...

And thanks for the messages of support received from places ranging from Swansea to Brighton!

Solidarity to all squaters and Alex Haigh!

We're queer and were still here! Update coming soon...

Cops this morning threatened to break in regarding one our banners "fuck the fucking fuckers" under public order. We've now removed it to lengthen the resistance after 24hrs of naughty behaviour. Cops have passed since and seem to of not noticed rather than pull over. In response is more banners! Traveller, cuts cafe and queer/trans solidarity. Communique on its way.

Please please please is it possible to somehow chat to one of you, even from a window or whatever about your argument. This is something i really believe in and i have the opportunity to write an article for the uni newspaper highlighting your struggle and hopefully evoke more support. Please let me know asap, thank you!

Someone will be in touch to chat about the possibility when we get our phone sorted. We're restricting interviews to radical media only, but if you are on side (as you sa) then we'd be willing to. Cheers, one of the grems

I was happy to hear initially that this great old building would be put to use again but the state of it now with the squatters in there is a disgrace- litter, graffiti etc. Why doesn't the council do something? As the squatters obviously don't care about or respect the building, they should be evicted.
