Squatters occupying Britain’s most expensive council
house vowed to fight attempts to evict them after it was sold for nearly £3

auction to protest against the sale of council housing stock. The Grade II listed property fetched £2.96
million, considerably more than its reserve price of £2.25 million. Seven
protesters occupied the premises. They claim Southwark is in urgent need of
public housing with 25,000 people on the council waiting list. Read more on the
