Posh squatters - they're back

Our favourite weekend property piece? This Telegraph investigation into the young lawyers, designers and other professionals who making like 1975 and squatting in London to avoid unaffordable rents. The difference - this time - is that instead of daubing the property with CND signs, they're fitting it out in Ikea, and the neighbours lurve it:

Recently, a group of squatters who moved into a five-storey house in Fitzjohn's Avenue, Hampstead, were given permission to stay until March 2007 because they are effectively caretaking the property for free. The neighbours were happy to see a once-vacant property properly looked after.
