London, UK. 22nd November 2016. Sid Skill of Class War wears a snout and pigs ears and holds a poster 'Working hard to beat Southwark Council's record on social cleanising - Croydon COuncil' at the protest outside Croydon Boxpark against property developers and council leaders who were attending the Develop Croydon Conference, aimed at transforming Croydon into a desirable metropolitan hub with luxury apartments, prestige offices and the capital’s latest Westfield. Class War want Croydon to be developed to meet the needs of the inhabitants rather than to line the pockets of developers and become a piggy bank of largely empty flats and offices owned by overseas investors. As property developers and councillors entered the site they shouted 'snouts in the trough!'. Peter Marshall/Alamy Live News
