DAY OF ACTION AGAINST EMPTY HOMES OCTOBER 22ND

We all are aware of the housing crisis with increasing homelessness, insecurity of tenure, the lack of social housing, and rents that take up much of people’s wages. Meanwhile, thousands of homes are empty or let out as airnbs. Capitalism has made a commodity out of our most essential needs- homes are property and the source of profit for a few.

We can now sing, dance and wave banners anywhere, but there are some restrictions within 50 metres, including using amplifiers and sticking to designated areas. We will be seen and heard by the wealthy GOSH trustees.” We refer you to the new court order for full details. For more info about the campaign see: https://www.uvwunion.org.uk/en/campaigns/
