SQUATTERS have been evicted from an Oxford University building they were in as part of a protest about affordable housing.

The group went into the Old Power Station in Arthur Street with the intention of holding a four-day series of events on housing.

But the university, which owns the building, obtained an injunction telling them to leave which they did last night.

Their events, which start tonight, will now be held in Cowley Road Methodist Church.
