expulsion of Black Thursday by Axa! Kel

This Tuesday, February 15th the 8th district court requested the immediate expulsion of the occupants of the building 22 avenue Matignon supported by the collective Black Thursday. Since December 27, 2010, thirty members of the collective Black Thursday (temporary workers, students and families ill-housed) lived at 22 Avenue Matignon.

Karima Delli MEP Europe Ecology of Ile de France, Vice-President of the Intergroup on Urban Housing, regrets this decision and wish this opportunity to remind all its support to this requisition citizen. This action is very symbolic because it recalls that the right to housing is a fundamental right.

While housing remains, along with employment, the main concern of the French government continues to protect those who organize the housing shortage by real estate speculation and cutting the budgets of public housing rather than to establish the true solutions proposed by the group Black Thursday and the associations of poor housing, as rent control, real tax residential and office vacancies, prevention of evictions and the requisition of vacant buildings, particularly where the 20% social housing under article 55 of the SRU are not respected.

Another measure would have an immediate effect: capping rents per square meter, to prohibit indecent rents, because these maids' rooms rented over 500 euros in Paris and the suburbs. Moreover, this idea was advocated by Benoist Found himself. Secretary of State for Housing had promised to implement if the real estate professionals do genes regulate not their own prices. While we are still at the heart of winter, she hopes that the building owner, Axa, will not be forcibly eviction of residents of 22 Avenue Matignon.
