The man who was arrested for assault should have been charged
Cool story karen😂
So what good did all that do? Released without charge, ! UK is woke !
@@Ziederzee1 yes woke = in a daze
I was homeless in Downtown Los Angeles for a couple of years in my Punk rock days and it was 100 percent by choice. Then I got my GF pregnant and decided to change my life for my kid and it was hard but more than worth it. Life is so much better when you earn what you have and defend it legally.
almost magical.
I was homeless for about a year in my punk rock days. It was not by choice. More child support than I could afford to pay on my income. Could not get food stamps or any other help because eligibility is based on net income after taxes. The court-ordered health insurance comes out pretax, and they can take 50% of what is left. The kicker is, your kid can starve while all her child support is spent on meth, and you can't get any government agency to care.
@@allenvestal4474 I had many similar struggles and just worked Cash jobs. it took years to get my life back in order but it was better than just living in the streets complaining and getting treated like trash.
@@allenvestal4474 If she was really on meth you can hire a private investigator to get proof and take custody from her.
@@allenvestal4474Funny how you impregnated her, though.
Suatters say they are doing no damage, but they are living in there and make a mess for the owner to clean up
Squatters - 'I reject society and don't wish to live by its rules'.
Also squatters- 'Society owes me and I will sponge off society and its structure as much as I can'
Go live in the woods motherfkr and homestead. Stfu.
We need them in U.S.A
And Canada!!
I love these guys! The crap they gotta deal with from unruly people is ridiculous. If you don't pay we take it away PERIOD.
Squatters rights were for Pioneer days when land would be owned but abandoned for 50 years… it wasn’t meant for people to illegally move into someone’s home or backyard
Hard to figure out where you're talking about. Pioneer days? The UK had pioneer days? If you're referring to the US, where "pioneer days" are traditionally associated, then squatters rights in the past are of no consequence. In no state is squatting legal, nor do squatters have rights. They are immediately evicted by police for trespassing.
@TheMangoMussolini not really... haven't u been following us politics lately?
@@kungfreddie What does politics have to with squatters rights?
Then why do they have, ANY rights?
These socialist kids need to move to a communist country if they want to live that way so much. These landlords can’t rent their spaces when they ruin their properties. That law is ridiculous. I hope now that it’s 2024 that it’s changed.
Its hard not to notice the vast majority of these people bankrupting landlords and screwing company's over are not English people.
This must be the only episode you've watched 😂😂😂. I've been watching these for years and yes the vast majority ARE english people smh😂😂😂😂
make people suffer,you made the owners suffer with not paying the rent
...and they actually defend their criminal behaviour,, believe they have a right, to use someone else's hard.work, & property! This is learned behaviour, Mum & Dad!...
Looks like the owner of the Khyber Grill had to grin and bear it as he took it up the Khyber Pass...😳
40:00 On this one I can empathise. I diligently paid the rent in good time each month when suddenly the bailiff came to the door because my landlord had not been paying his bills. I was livid. I did have a bit of time to move, however. Not just one hour.
I really don’t understand why these students weren’t given more time
likely story - liar
A month behind? Here it goes on for months. A friend bought a home in a high end neighborhood and besides his wife and 6 kids they were sharing their new home with squatters. There’s a huge basement and it had an outside entrance. On the third day at dinner they heard the family downstairs. It took them 6 months. They had to move out in the meantime. And that was before Covid when the eviction time was a year or more
FYI IT'S NOT PAID FOR !!! IT ABSOLUTELY ISN'T YOURS!!
Taken into custody, then released without charge. Yeah, great deterrent. Ignorant law enforcement.
Yeah the police have no teeth in the uk
It may be the law rather than the enforcers, as I understand squatting in commercial buildings isn't a crime in UK, but removing them is legal.
@@caliadoThat's because they actually do what they're supposed to which is deescalate.
OH HEY!!! WELL PLAYED BRITAIN!...👍👍👍👍
We need a version of this in the U.S. Especially for squatters.
I'm in the US and I can tell you that if someone took my property I wouldn't become violent. But the squatters might be found suffering from a mysterious case of carbon monoxide poisoning. Allegedly.
Are you joking. There is more "legal" squatting going on in the USA than any other country. Do you not watch the news, it's a whole industry now
How silly. Squatters rights.
24:15 Whoa… £75K?! Waiting four years for that? That’s horrible. 34:00 “oh come on! Where would you like for me to go?” I don’t care. 😂
Life is hard ,grant you that ,but you can’t squat on someone’s property and run their bills up because you can’t carry yourself! There are better ways to get help than burdening the public!
I understand some of the evictions except Brighton Beach if those people actually put that much effort in actually working they could accomplish something
You get a free place to live and you trash it! I dont understand people
Listening to the squatter in the £500 apartment is hilarious. He says how there is no dignity in how hes being evicted and he'd have gone to his place given notice...
Why is it that when you work hard and many hours, lazy squatters always revert to saying you are rich and you can't live in all the properties? I put in hard hours to earn money and I invested in property. Why do people begrudge you for hard work?
10:47 later released without charge that enforcer a fool not to press charges
Squatting is technically illegal here in the Netherlands, but if a building has been empty for more than a year then the police will basically say it's the owner's problem if it gets squatted.
The whole thing is much more complicated than either side will admit.
For one thing; it really doesn't take much to become homeless. Losing your job at the wrong moment, like at the beginning of a pandemic that tanks the economy. A simply human error at some government organisation that blocks your taxreturns causing the taxman to take all your assets and it can take years to fix. Go talk to organisations that deal with these things, it's scary.
On the other hand, a building can be left empty for a hundreds reasons too. Usually it's the city that causes the delay by requiring detailed plans, reports and investigations that take months to get and once you have them, they will ask a hundred questions about it and then take weeks to respond to your replies.
Cities have exactly zero reason to do these things quickly.
And while they procrastinate, the owner of the building cannot do anything with the building, including renting it out or even having people stay there for free, because the building is not up to code for that application.
It gets worse; here in the Netherlands there are rules that protect people who rent a house. If they have been living somewhere for more than X years they become entitled to living there and the landlord cannot just evict them anymore once the plans for the building go through. So as a building owner you probably don't even want to rent it out because you genuinly risk lsing the building to the renters.
Ofcourse, building more houses is fairly easy, but new houses are expensive to live in so... that doesn't help. In the Netherlands we've had trials with laws that say that if you rent a house the rent has to match your income. If you make more money you are forced to move to a more expensive house. This sounds fair because it sounds like paying more taxes, but remember we are talking about housing. If you are single but make a good amount of money you _have_ to move to a more expensive house. More expensive means bigger, more suited to a family, but you have to live there alone and that family has to... I don't know, find somewhere else?
The problem is that there are not enough cheap houses. Sadly the housing market is controlled by investors who give exactly zero sh8ts about those who cannot afford their properties.
A government with balls could create a law that forces housing investors to build cheap housing, but governments with balls don't exist.
So the larger problem is government regulations? Right?
Squatters are losers and cowards, for wearing masks. They don’t have more rights than working people, who pay taxes.
Ah yes, if only everyone were forced to do what you think they should do, life would be perfect.
Right! 🤷🏻♀️
Housing investors have nothing to do with any imagined problems, any more than investors in business raise prices. Some people have no understanding of economic principles.
Homeless people and squatters that get pets are the worst.
homeless people know to sleep on the street but squatters break into place & make false clams to stay that the different
The situation with the college guys living in their apartment for 5 years, paying the LL 1200$ a month on time in full get evicted and have 1 hour to pack up five years of belongings ALL because the LL filed for bankruptcy and he lost the building is a very messed up situation!!! The system over there is twisted for sure!! I WILL NEVER MOVE OVER TO THAT SIDE OF THE WORLD!!!! I definitely feel bad for those guys, going to school, paying their rent and bills & doing the right things just to get screwed over like that is BS
They could sue the landlord to recover their rent, if they are law students would be a learning experience. In US we have small claims court where people can represent themselves to get back money owed.
Go get a job. Earn a living. Be productive. How difficult can it be.
I've got a job, work 50 hours a week. Single mum . Slave away and struggle to get by, living costs are killing me. I could easily end up losing it all If I am unwell for one week. It's awful living such a way
The woman who said that there were a lot of empty properties so therefore they should just be allowed to live in one of them used a fine bit of logic. Let's see how that plays out. I tell the cops that the Lexus car dealership has a lot of cars just sitting there not being used so why shouldn't I be allowed to just "borrow" one and drive it around for a while. I'm not hurting anything, am I? I guess the idea of getting a job and PAYING for a place to live and doing so LEGALLY is just not something they would consider doing.
I hope the students realized it was the man that took their money that owes them. The landlord got plenty of notices by mail about the bill he owed and exactly when the eviction would be.
I can see the squatters are from south east europe maybe albania or romania
The guy with the dog, who hit a guy in his face with the door, what happened to him?
Work your ass off ..that's how you make your dreams come true.
People go to a different country just to continue the struggle🤔
I live in the USA and this looks all well and good but how long dose it take to get the paperwork for eviction?
Is now a broken system, just get a damn job and it will be over with.
Get a job like the rest of us!
They were up to date with rent the Bangladesh guys so how is it they are put on the street ?
Pay attention 🤦♀️
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
imagine being this dumb 🤣 go back to the meth pipe moron
Their landlord who took the money is the responsible one. He kept their money and didn't make the mortgage payments (probably).
@@catnk9 so in uk the tenant contract doesn't give them a right to live there. I'd have thought the new owner (the bank) would have to respect the tenants and tell the who to pay from then on.
Squatter's rights was an old west way of the government making sure land didn't go to waste not what they use it for today.
In this days when they say you're fired, they burnt your home to the ground.
Well done mate,getting them out,they just want give me and dont pay,stealing from people is the worst,good to see you doing a great job,should be meny more of you,
Why would there be different squatter rights for commercial property as opposed to domestic property?
There might be a valid point but the damage these squatters do in just disgusting!!! Why then would they expect help when they continue to destroy properties that isnt their's, and then wonder why no one wants to help them!!!! It's not just rubbish they leave, theres graffiti all over the place, holes kicked in everywhere, broken loos full of shit, just filth and kaos everywhere. Then we have the cost of the cleanup, and its not the damn squatters paying is it, nooo, it isnt!!! Lets not forget all the bitching if people have multiple properties. SO WHAT, none of the squatters business and maybe if they stopped bitching about the people who have them and actually do something about it, it could be them. People actually lose their own homes because they help someone else who then stops paying rent and dont move out, and then become squatters and think they should be allowed to do that and think its ok.. The home and business owners have bills to pay as well. These people work hard for what they have only to have assholes destroy their hard work.
YOU KNOW HE SEEN A PAPER TAPED TO THE WINDOW AT SOME POINT!!! COME ON . HE KNEW IT WAS COMING.....
Their arguments are so flimsy. If THEY were owed money for whatever reason, I guarantee they would use every opportunity to get their money back!
This looks like a tough job. The UK has officers that go around and collect debts in person? I'm in the U.S. and it is much different. They will repossess cars and homes, which takes awhile, but not usually goods, and never cash in person. Very interesting.
Maybe if you stop trying to reason with crazy people & be more forceful, the squatters would know they don't want any trouble. Right now, it looks as though there's no respect from squatters.
We need them in the US
No matter how bad it gets, their always nice,
Please and thank you, 😂
They're 🙄
I don't feel bad for squatters at all, I do feel bad for the property owners. Squatters are given far, far too many unjustifiable rights all while the owners get shafted!
I don't understand evicting the tenents because the owner lost the building. Yes the old landlord lost the building, I understand this. Wouldn't it be in the best interest of the new owners of the property to get the building and the tenants?? That way the new owner would not have to put a penny in to the building because the tenants occupied the building and they were paying rent.This would mean that the tenants would start paying the new owner the $1200. a month they were paying the old landlord? Would that not be better then having to put money out for any repairs even if it just a coat of paint in each apartment. Then advertise for new tenants. Just leave the tenants there, make them sign a new lease with the new owner, and start collecting the $1200. per month from them right away?
A bank likely has or will gain legal possession of it, but takes time and banks are typically not in the rental business.
The American guy confused me. Why are you in an expensive foreign country squatting when you could move back to the states with cheaper rent? It seems to me as if he just wanted to stay in England because he liked it. But if you gotta go , you gotta go.
Only if he wants to live in the rural areas where there are no jobs for what he is trained to do. £500/week is the the same as about $2800/mo. which might or might not get you a place in New York City or Los Angeles.
Because the Pommy government is easier on sponges and even subsidises them.
Ya we'll just move with no money or transport. I guess they'll have to walk.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@georgeedward1691 bruh , an American squatting in a foreign country will never make sense to me smh
@@louisbouchard6869 who on earth wants to live in LA or NYC? 😂
14:21 ok forgive my ignorance but why would anyone owe the post office money? 🤔
Possibly a money order?
Don't know, but post offices in some countries do provide services not offered in US.
I did feel bad for those blagladesh students.
The law students paying rent that’s wrong to put them out the law is wrong with that one because they have nothing to do with what the landlord did wow
The last one was a bit rough, tenants on the street through no foult of their own.
I'm not shouting at you he screams!
He would poop his paints if he ended up homeless. It's not us some really can't find a job or for some reason don't have an picture iD.
MAKE THEM LEAVE! GEESH! You have ALL THE POWER! Stop trying to be nice. It doesn't work on everyone.
Their a lot more civilized than any U.S police force. Have you noticed they don't carry guns or tasers?GEEZ
"you are taught you can be a rock star, be a millionaire..." (just like your mummy and daddy)
fair enough if its someone's property I think better drug and alcohol rehab services and fair social programs
Does the UK deport people for crimes?
Facts are most of them that are homeless choose to be because they simply don't pay their own way in society yet they want to blame everyone else for the position they themselves are put in...
Agree, sad but true. Compassion can't solve all problems, usually only makes it worse.
Why wasn't he charged with assault?
LIBERAL laws...that's why they just continue to do it over and over, no accountability. Same throughout the western world, their sick ideas have taken over and ruined western civilization.
How people could live without guilty on a property not belong to them!! The world needs some law and order. If the private property was not protected, the whole society basement of working and earning your life will be crashed and there would be no meaning to work and life
And it took something like 10 or 20 years for it to apply.
I don’t agree with kicking tenants out that have no idea about the notice. They deserve at least some notice, even if it’s only a few days.
If you only knew how often tenants lie in these circumstances... it's extremely common.
Felt sorry for the Bangladeshi students, they were paying the rent regularly to the landlord , but they were unaware of the situation of the landlord, officers should informed them before kicking them out…
Kind of racism from the Britishers, they will allow shoplifters, squatters to stay but if any Asian they found, they behave rudely
Why did you not stay in asia?
Imagining racism everywhere 🙄 Sorry, that era is over, that ship has sailed. Get something new, that one's worn out. This series of programs show dozens and dozens of non-Asians being evicted, at least research before making wild accusations.
Maybe America could take a lesson from the Britts with removing squatters. The law as it now stands gives all the rights to the squatters and little to the property owners.
America has very strict squatters rights it is very difficult for this water to be able to be able to stay
Yeeerrrrrreyyoooooooe😢yy
You want bailiffs coming to your door and taking all your personal possessions including clothes if you lose your job and get behind in your payments?
Some states have already made new laws to make it much easier to remove squatters.
@@cnetz2218Squatters are different than tenants, they never had a lease or paid rent, just moved in.
The police in GB are unarmed. What good are they?
import degens, get degens
If you want to be a criminal without consequence go to England, they are the most lenient country in the world.
Some of these squatters. Cannot border or immigration get them deported? Where are those asking for passports? Again, start asking for passports and student and working visas.
I take a different views with the homeless. it is sad that some who are homeless are not being helped. Nobody needs to be homeless in this world.
34:35 is that a nickname?
"Loonie"?? The caption adds some questions about his character...at least I hope his parents didn't give him that name. 😂
if the people are paying the rent why can't they pay to the new landlord
Only in the UK
To the Enforcers: STOP SAYING OK AFTER EVERY SENTENCE! OK turns your sentences into questions.
It’s how they, as a country, speak. It’s not just the enforcers. You listening to the entire video?
It's like in the UK saying ,yea?
@rosamariamendoza1466 what? It IS the uk...
@@kungfreddieSo it is.😊
😂
They should be armed and have police powers as well.
In America, if you kick someone's door in, you get shot.
Yeah I bet it's straight savagery in America
Scott should be the one who deals with the activist. Steve is the niceer looking one. Between the 2 Scott have that face u wanna punch, he looks more like a chav. Steve has the more lenient look even if he is the tougher one with siezures. Thats why the people yend to be rougher with Scott vs Steve...People tend to be more accpting to Steves methods . My opinion. 😆 Scott-squatter issues ... Steve-business people issues .
They don't want to be! If your rents are anything like the US? Your privilege looks bad on you
Why are they covering their faces? If you believe you are not breaking the law, why cover your face?
I feel so bad for those studsnts.
hell in in america cops would have them arested jailed vehicle towed idmeately
i have no sympathy for squatters,its not your property,get a damn job,pay the rent or get out
I really, REALLY feel bad for the students. 😢 That's just cruel.
38:57 Victim mentality.
I think those enforces should be required as part of their job to lose their own home without notice so they can feel what they are about to put people through, particularly the last guy they evicted, i mean he paid his rent but still lost his home
So, you won't leave cuz the kids are asleep? I have a solution for that then; call in children's services, & take the kids into custidy! See that if they don't move then!
Deportation
Are the Pakistani people the only people that work in the uk.
Felt sorry for the students at the end..
I feel bad for the students.
FYI YOU HAVE AN EMPTY PROPERTY . HIRE A SECURITY COMPANY , IT WILL SAVE YOU ALOT OF HEADACHES!!!! OR MOVE IN IT TILL ITS RE OCCUPIED!!!
Get a job
This guy needs some empathy. Tough job but develop some empathy.
as a long time member of the have nots, I have no sympathy for the haves, sorry not sorry.

The law students for 5 years, haven’t learned much about the law in the UK. 🤔🫢😵💫
