Hello from newbie

[joggon]

hi all,
hope you are all well.
just a quick intro/hello from me to all on the site.
Used to squat in London many years ago,Islington,Hackney.
Always thought if things get shitty where i am at the mo(a legal tenant LOL) i would head back to London and squat again,well,that looks like a slim choice now as squatting residential property is now illegal in England.
If i manage to get a passport and when i no longer have an ageing cat to look after i am going to set my sites on squatting further afield.
Lots of empty abandoned buildings in Portugal where it is not illegal to squat i think?correct me if wrong.
Noticed a lot of countries in the EU have also made squatting illegal,is this some sort of global conspiracy to keep the poor firmly in place?
Anyway,thanks for letting me join,hope i can get a bit involved on the forums,time permitting and i also have some physical difficulty sitting in front of a pc for long periods of time so if i don't reply quickly its not that i'm being an ignoramus its cos i'm a bit battered.
Love,peace and all the other good stuff for you all.
J.

I hear Detroit has a lot of available property.

from what i have seen and read about Detroit it reminds me off a lot of cities in the UK in the early 1980's,left to rot and the powers that be don't give a shit that folk are suffering hardship in places similar.
Probably in a few decades it'll be regenerated by multi-national corporations making it look all nice and shiny like whats been going on here.
Everywhere seems to look the same in England these days.
