Arlo Bailey retuiteado

This case from 2025 has already been resolved.
The squatters were evicted by police on 20 June 2025 after the local MP intervened. The elderly homeowner regained possession of her property. Squatting in a residential building is a criminal offence in England and Wales under section 144 of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012. Police have the power to arrest anyone who enters or remains in a residential property as a trespasser with the intention of living there.
It is not simply a civil matter. In this case, officers ultimately treated it as the criminal offence it is and removed the occupants.
