>>951618Finding established squats just requires hanging out in the sorts of places squatters do, but not all of them are cliched crusties so it can be hard to spot them...
If you want to start you own squat then you want to avoid residential buildings as they changed the law. DON'T force entry, scout out a property that you can get into without cutting padlocks, picking locks, smashing windows etc. It's worth it to take some time over it. Stick pic related on the door and make sure there is always someone in the squat. After that you're in till the law can get some real muscle in. For extra points squat an old police station.
