Rory? Or if he's not here, perhaps swipe could ask one of the men in her office?

I think there is a clear difference between using an empty property and breaking in to houses, although the law was changed last year to stop residential properties being squatted, you would still have to be resident for 12 years prior to even making a claim for ownership. If a building hasn't been used or claimed for that long then it should be usefully employed.

how can you tell someone what they ought to do with their own property? isn't that a bit.... dictatorial?

But aren't all laws? Most laws are in place to benefit the common good i.e. you cant kill someone you don't like. So (and I know getting to this argument with a property lawyer is fucking stupid as I only have a very limited knowledge of the subject) surely it makes sense for someone without a home to utilise an empty property. I agree that damage etc. is not acceptable however there are ways of getting the utilities connected legitimately and so on.

only if they want to utilise it! you can't say, "you must do this with your land, because this person has chosen to drop out of society and has nowhere else to go".

I'll decide when I want to use my stuff, thanks, not you.

and you pay rates on it, and you pay to insure it, and you pay to maintain it. why should you do all that, just so that someone else can sit in it for free?
