Goldsmiths Students Occupy College Building.

Students at Goldsmiths college have occupied the Deptford town hall building in the centre of the campus. The red and black flag has been hoisted above the building and a banner embalzoned "OCCUPATION" has been hung on the front of the building.

The students have occupied the building in the aim of securing two scholarships, for students from Al-Quds university, which Goldsmiths is twinned with.

Update Saturday 14th Feb: Occupying Goldsmiths Students win total victory in 29 hours.

The students intend to host discussions among other events for the students of Goldsmiths, and want to stress this is a student space open for all to come and enjoy and shape as they see fit. This is about empowering the student population, and musnt just be another left wing talking shop.

At 12.00 the students entered the building and secured the top floor, with no resistance from the staff.
