Housing in the UK is highly segregated, inflexible and often unsuitable, creating 1. Social benefit emerging crises in special needs and care, affordability and loneliness. These have major impacts on people’s health, increasing costs for society. The term intergenerational housing has been widely used to describe schemes that bring together younger and older people to share activities and to socialise. They have been found to deliver great benefits through ousin tackling isolation, but tend to be ad-hoc and encounter practical difficulties.

  • Hidden Histories of Resistance
    Hidden Histories In essence, without squatting we would have remained isolated as gay men living in our individual shabby bedsit or flats or of Resistance The Diverse Heritage of Squatting in England houses. Squatting enabled us to come together collectively to break down that isolation and produced some of the most productive political campaigning and radical theatre, not to mention a shot at non-bourgeois, non-straight ways of living. – Ian Townson text liberated from the landlords at crimethinc.com by oplopanax publishing Over the past few years, there has been a push to criminalize squatting across Western Europe. But in a time of increasing economic instability, can governments succeed in suppressing squatting? What is at stake here? This article reviews the background and contemporary context of squat- ting in England, beginning after the Second World War and comparing the current movement to its counterparts on mainland Europe. It touches on many stories: migrants squatting to build a life safe from fascist attacks, gay activists finding spaces in which to build up a scene, vibrant and insurgent squatted areas, single-issue campaigns occupying as a direct action tactic, and anti-capitalist groups setting up social centers. We hope this text will help those in present-day struggles to root themselves in the heritage of previous movements. Online version with photos and video available at cwc.im/uksquat The UK Social Centre Network (in 2006) has warned that “Britain is now at the centre of a perfect storm of housing problems. High and rising rents, the cripplingly high costs of getting on the housing ladder, and the lowest peacetime building figures since the 1920s have all combined with a prolonged economic downturn to increase the pressure on families.” Another commentator ends a long analysis by sug- gesting that we will soon be witnessing the return of slums in the UK.

  • Eight Temporary Autonomous Art Events in London
    UtilisING SPACe ruimte utilitizieren ate Aout 2o13 8 brighton squat trial updates This zine has had a few missed deadlines and one was the trial back in April of the three squatters arrested in September last year, just after squatting in residential buildings. They were the first people to plead not guilty to the new offence and we wanted to make a big deal out of it. In the end, no-one else really cared but the public gallery was packed every day as we watch the magistrates struggle to understand what the fuck was happening. The police lied as they always do but looked rather uncomfortable in their new role as property guardians. Their amateur video interview with the wanker entrusted with keeping the building empty was cute but two squatters walked free, since there wasn’t any evidence that they were living in the building. The case was then adjourned and unfortunately (also rather amazingly), the third squatter was later found guilty, the sole extra evidence against him being that a cop said he lived there!! It was really a bullshit judgement which I hope a judge will overturn. The appeal is in motion, it’s been adjourned once but should happen on October 30/31. On the Friday night, Dillinger Escape Plan are playing Concorde with Maybeshewill (who I’m listening to now as it happens) so hopefully we’ll get the conviction overturned and a useful precedent set regarding how residential and living are defined legaly. That would be a good start to the weekend Halloween festivities.

  • Visioning a Sustainable Energy Future: the Case of Urban Food-Growing
    Theory Culture & Society VISIONING A SUSTAINABL E ENERGY FUTURE - THE CASE OF URBAN FOOD GROWING earlier title: BACKCASTING FOR A SUSTAINABLE ENERGY FUTUREFor – THE Peer CASE OF URBANReview FOOD-GROWING Journal: Theory Culture & Society Manuscript ID: 13-129-SIESoc.R1 Manuscript Type: SI - Special Issue Energising Society Key Words: food, future, contemporary activism, utopia, city, space, ecology We outline a future where society re-energises itself, in the sense both of recapturing creative dynamism, and of applying creativity to meeting physical energy needs. Both require us to embrace self-organising properties, whether in nature or society. We critically appraise backcasting as a methodology for visioning, arguing that backcasting’s potential for radical, outside-the-box thinking is restricted unless it contemplates a break with class society, connects with existing grassroots struggles Abstract: (notably over land) and dialogues with utopian socialist tradition. We develop a case study of food, starting from the physical parameters of combatting the entropy expressed in the loss of soil structure, and apply this to urban food-growing. Drawing upon ‘real utopias’ of existing practice, the paper proposes a threefold categorisation: subsistence plots, an urban forest, and an ultra-high productivity sector. We emphasise the emergent properties of such a complex system characterised by the ‘free energy’ of societal self-organisation.

This diffuse social movement had its heyday in the late 1970s and early 1980s when there were 30,000 squatters and still exists today despite squatting in residential buildings being criminalised in 2012. Analysis is based on a database of 245 social centres, which are examined in terms of duration, time period, type of building and location. Important centres are briefly profiled and important factors affecting the squatters movement are examined, in particular institutionalisation, gentrification and criminalisation.
