  I have some sympathy that items that connected this lady to her dead father were lost. But Jesus fucking Christ 18 years is not a reasonable amount of time to leave a property empty.

  On the other hand, this earlier story shows a clear failure on van den Lamb’s part to do due diligence, and I have far more sympathy for the home owner in that case.

    Agreed. It’s an unfortunate situation, it really is, but there is a housing crisis and it’s been [FAIAP] uninhabited for 18 years. Hope they manage to recover the furniture somehow.

    As for the second one, I love what van den Lamb is doing but there absolutely needs to be critique and correction to avoid those slip-ups getting through vetting. Mess-ups can have serious impacts to innocent people and furthermore could further harm the public perception of squatting as a valid coping mechanism for combatting homelessness.

  He’s not a disgrace. He’s highlighting an important issue.

  Everyone should vote this disgrace into Parliament, please. He’d be the least disgraceful one in there.
