Yep
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.

"surely it makes sense for someone without a home to utilise an empty property"
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".
