Julian, 36: “The eviction ruling. We have to make sure all of these structures are being safeguarded. We need to find a place to store the equipment, solar panels,generator, tents and shelves that we all worked so hard to build and maintain in the last 3 months.”
Katherine, 20: “The biggest challenge for me is to maintain contact with the people I’ve been interacting and working with on social change. We have a powerful and amazing social network in place but it’s not going to be the same as being here and talking face-to-face.”
John, 26: “Finding another place to occupy is relatively easy. The challenge will be in engaging with the general public in the same way we did at St. Paul’s.”
Anna, 30: “It was never about St. Paul’s for me. I see no challenge in having to move. With over half a million empty buildings in UK alone and so many public spaces in London we’ll manage to find a way.”
Shawn, 44: “So far it’s been really difficult to start an eviction plan. Next week we’ll need as many volunteers as we can to make sure all these wonderful structures and materials don’t go to waste.”
Owen, 31: “The biggest challenge is tackling the increasing ways in which the 1% is coming down on us. They have started a vicious campaign against our Internet freedom along with social-economic enslavement.”
