The intention of the research was to look at how people have organised themselves as squatters creating basic infrastructures of use to the wid- er squatting movement. The full results of this research is in 3 full box- es in Mayday Rooms and some of it in this booklet produced in March 2019 for free distribution to the housing movement and to other readers. It’s very London-centric and with much from Southwark in South London probably because the writer was a squatter in Walworth for 10 years before getting a council home via the Hard To Let scheme. These days more involved in social centres, political education work and trying to resist gentrification.</p> <p>x-chris c/o 56a Infoshop, 56a Crampton St, London SE17 3AE</p></div> MayDay Rooms eng housingstruggles
