Broadway Market Hackney: Café Occupation

Francesca's Café at 34 Broadway Market in Hackney, London has been occupied by local people to prevent it's demolition by developer Dr. Roger Wratten who plans to build luxury flats on the site.

The occupation made the front page of Hackney Gazette on Thursday, and has been covered by metamute in more depth, but needs much more publicity and practical support if it is going to continue for more than a few days.
