UK to avoid cripplingly high rents in urban centres

Diane Taylor
Wednesday October 26, 2005
The Guardian


Françoise is a well-groomed young French woman who works part-time in fashion PR in London, pays her taxes and shares a cottage with friends in north London. She pays no rent though, because she is one of thousands of people across the UK who is squatting. "Many people who squat are working in low-paid jobs and simply cannot afford to pay rent, particularly in London," she says. "We want to do something creative with our lives, not just working behind a bar or on a building site. If you don't have to pay rent on top of all your other living expenses it can mean the difference between having time to live and merely surviving." read full story / add a comment

Rosa Parks died at the age of 93 on October 24, 2005. It was 50 years ago that Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat to a white man aboard a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama. She was arrested and convicted of violating the state’s segregation laws.

Her act of civil disobedience was the spark that lit the flames of the American civil rights movement - a long struggle for freedom which inspired others around the world to do the same - including our fellow countrymen north of the border. read full story / add a comment
