It's illegal means if the authorities found you squatting they will remove you from the premises.

They may not have to pay a fine unless they destroy the property.

It's a civil offence not a criminal offence.

The article states that it's only illegal for residential properties. And civil offence in the UK is a fucking joke. Slap on a wrist would be more effective. It should be a criminal offence.

You're right, just round up all the homeless and put them in camps. That way we can concentrate them in one area.

I like to skirt around the flames a lil for dramatic effect.
