New Era win!

U.S. asset management company Westbrook Partners (Worth $11 billion) gained ownership of the New Era estate in East London and planned to evict residents and triple the rent (Tossers!). After a massive community based campaign residents have finally won! Something tangible for a change, finally a victory against property developing scum bags!

This just shows that we can win things and I really hope that this is the first of many!
