Squatters in Park Lane
January 23, 2009 by Rob Powell
There’s been squatters in Upper Grosvenor Street. Then they moved to Clarges Mews.
And now the media is reporting that more squatters have taken up residence in Park Lane, and are enjoying the use of two houses worth £15million a piece. The group, about 40 strong, are living at number 94 and 95 on Park Lane where they apparently have fantastic views of Hyde Park.
Sky News reports that they are “currently hosting a “night exhibition” at No 95, displaying the paintings, drawings and sculptures they have produced”.
Fuel Protestors Converge In Park Lane
April 29, 2008 by Rob Powell
Haulage firms who have been hit by rising fuel costs are parking their lorries in Park Lane today to demonstrate their unhappiness. The rally, which organisers hope will attract hundreds, will then send a delegation to Parliament carrying a coffin to symbolise, I guess, that their businesses are in mortal danger following a 30% increase in the price of diesel over the last 12 months.
