Squatters under siege

Following 15 hours of house arrest our loving jailers (west yorks police) finally left only to return hours later mob handed with a search warrent under section 18. After having to let them in they spent an hour finding anything broken or dammaged so they could try pin us for criminal dammage. now all this seems a bit weird to me they stayed outside for 15 hours enforceing a civil law then came back with a lame excuse to enter the property. Brunel and family housing seem to have some sort of sway with the upper ranking police as conducting this operation was the chief of police himself. we are happy to say that at present they have left who knows what they will try next keep posted for more details. If anyone can shed any light please do. All welcome to pop in.

Solidarity Always
Bradford Squatters

The police turned up again last night around 10pm, they wanted to get in but didn't have a warrant. The door was barracaded to stop the police illegally entering. The police managed to break a hole in the top of the door and CS gassed everyone inside. They got in and chased a fellow squatter, caught him and pinned him to the ground. He was then beaten up for around ten minutes by the police, even though he did not fight back. A girl screamed at the brutality and was hit by the police to shut her up. Another squatter was also arrested by the police for allegedly fighting back. Anyone who can come down and show support and solidarity is welcome, we have to show them that they cannot stop us by breaking the very laws they claim to be protecting!
