Angry and disgusted.<\/p>\n
In London, some dirty, filthy squatters — fuckwits, bums, lowlifes<\/a> and almost certainly anarchist<\/a><\/em> faggots — are continuing to get away with murder by occupying an empty property legally belonging to someone else<\/em>! Even The Age<\/em> has been forced to sit up and take notice of this scandal:<\/p>\n Britons’ protest over MP expenses scandal hits home<\/a> Squatters have taken over a house at the centre of rort revelations, Karla Adam reports from London.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Of course, the very worst aspect of this attack upon one of the cornerstones of Western Civilization has been the response of locals. According to Karla:<\/p>\n Far from shunning them as trespassers and troublemakers, neighbours appear to have greeted the squatters as white knights who aren’t afraid to shake a fist at a system many people contend has failed.<\/p>\n More than 150 local people have visited the house, the squatters say, offering not just moral support, but also a barbecue, a camper stove, mugs of tea, balloons, blankets, boxes of Chinese food, two deckchairs, trays of beer, a bottle of whisky, a small table and space in nearby heated houses should Britain’s current heatwave recede.<\/p>\n “Take this,” said Rod de St Croix, thrusting a bottle of wine at Mr Baker. “I can’t squat. I’ve got a family and kids and a job, but you’re doing it for me. Good on you.”<\/p>\n Ian Speed, a 46-year-old accountant, sauntered over with a tray of chocolate biscuits.<\/p>\n “I originally voted for Ann Keen,” he says. “But now I’m just appalled by all this second-house stuff.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Has the world gone mad?<\/em><\/p>\n Obviously, Great Britain isn’t so great anymore (especially with all them foreign scum<\/a> taking British jobs<\/a>). In which case it could do a lot worse than follow the example of the former British penal colony known as Australia, and abolish any legal status for squatters<\/a>. This would make the job of evicting the sub-humans from their so-called ‘homes’ a lot easier; it would have the added advantage of warehousing the poors in forms of accommodation befitting their social status — slums — while at the same time allow hardworking businessman to better enjoy the fruits of their back-breaking labour — say, by buying a luxury powerboat<\/a>, or something. This expenditure would, in turn, greatly assist The Economy, which from all accounts has been feeling a little down recently. Even better, a serious crackdown on squatting in Great Britain would not require the genocidal conquest of an entire continent — a task which, despite over two centuries of hard yakka, is still not complete.
