Londonist interviews Atom Tom

The Londonist has published just this lunchtime an interview I recently did with them about my story as a squatter. The interview was a cool opportunity, to put across a view of squatting, particularly in light of the recent Mayfair squats that have been in the news.

An opportunity like this was in fact something USgal and me had discussed when I first moved in way back in October, about how to engage with the mainstream about squatting, because as newcomers, we wanted to highlight the value of what we were doing. I am glad to have played a part in supporting the squatting world in this way and in challenging its public misconceptions. With many thanks to Lindsey.
