Minutes of the last meeting held on Saturday 26th September 2015
Housing Event:
1. We noted the paper Michael sent, which was written by James Meek in the London Review of Books, which adds considerable background to our understanding of the housing issue: Where will we live?
2. Eddie is sending Sara the information about Blustons for her to follow up. He is also investigating a boarded-up property opposite Kentish Town Library. The quest for a venue is becoming urgent.
3. Meanwhile, we noted that a Conference on Housing which had been planned to take place at Friends House on Sat 10th October has been postponed – http://www.counterfire.org/news/17994-a-movement-for-homes-the-people-s-housing-conference – more on this in due course.
4. We agreed that we would send the congratulatory email to Jeremy Corbyn and follow up with an invitation to the Housing Event.
