HOUSING activists have seized a new block of flats on a south London council estate set for demolition after being violently evicted from the building next door.

The second occupation on the Aylesbury Estate was “going strong” yesterday as squatters sat on the roof basking in the sun surrounded by police officers on the ground.

The building was taken on Tuesday — moments after bailiffs and 200 riot police stormed into flats, arresting six occupiers and evicting dozens more.
