On Thursday 12th May, the two defendants of the Eagle Tavern Squatting Case (that occured on the 20th April) both pleaded not guilty and no plea to charges of ‘abstracting electricity without authority’ and ‘burglary – with intent to cause criminal damage’ at the Magistrates Court in Taunton, Somerset.

The case was then adjourned for the Crown Court on July 7th, however there is a good chance it won’t get there due to lack of evidence; most of which has been made up or wrongly assumed. The solidarity intends to raise awareness about the current Squatting scene in Taunton, and will hopefully gain even more support than has already been shown.

We hope to maintain the current interest and support behind the Squatting movement in the South-West, and to continue spreading the increasing positivity!
