Barnet Times: "Cheers in packed Barnet County Court as Friern Barnet Library squatters' eviction hearing adjourned"


Link to Barnet Times

"Cheers rang out at a packed Barnet County Court this morning, as squatters occupying Friern Barnet Library were handed a second stay of execution.

"District judge at the Hendon Lane court, Marc Marin, adjourned the eviction hearing for a full trial in December, after declaring there was 'a clear public interest' in the case.

"Activists labelled the decision a 'victory for the local community', while Barnet Council’s deputy leader Dan Thomas said the extension would just prolong the sale of the popular building."
