This may get moved to NP&E, I'm not sure where it should go really!

Worth reading the comments.

I am surprised there isn't much more of this type of reprisal against Russian assets!

You'd think the story would have really opened the gates to a lot more media coverage...

..then evicted by riot police. The one on the news last night had a remarkably hefty police presence.

While I dont agree with the Russian Oligarchs, I cant stand squatters. Glad they got chucked out.

Can we presume that they will act as quickly when Joe Public's property gets invaded? One rule for all, that sort of thing?

I’d imagine a £150m mansion is wired up to some st hot security and if being raided it’s not gonna be some spice head wanting a pushbike to get home on.

They were not squatters they were protesters, wonder if the courts will find that the police acted illegally by arresting them?

Squatting or protesting aside, the cops seemed very eager to act, hopefully they do the same on an empty council house!
The original link won't open for me so don't know if it had the pic I saw of a Garda police car at the damaged entrance... resplendent in yellow and blue battenburg! Subtlesmile
