press release
Tuesday March 31, 2015 13:31 by Grangegorman
In the past week an unprecedented amount of community support has been shown to the squatters of a NAMA property in Grangegorman, Dublin 7. The 6th year class from the Educate Together primary school which shares a wall with the squatters spent their yard break creating a 'Save Our Squatters' petition which the entire class signed. Press Release- For immediate release “The support is not just coming from our immediate neighbours who see the connection between the local development for the DIT Grangegorman campus and their own struggle to pay rising rent in the area. People are coming from all over Dublin and beyond, people who were kicked out of their homes for the development of apartments and office blocks that stand empty after the economic downturn. They come with one message for us: Don't make the same mistake we did, don't leave.” Justice Gilligan granted the injunction order on Friday but gave the squatters until 4th May to vacate the property.
