After warning that Congress is facing peasants, the squatter who cobbled a fragile house beside the railroad together is on the verge of losing everything.
The rebellious Leo Fielan, 54, has lived undisturbed for 18 years in a small parcel owned by the local council.

However, he has faced the prospect of peasant farming since he applied to the Land Registry to make a plan in his name at Kings Cross in London.
A Romanian who claims “this land is mine” under certain torts arrived in England in 2004 and bet his claim next to the railroad tracks.
Since then, he says he has “transformed” the land on Kamley Road to own it, and even plans to add a garden and abandon his home.
Nonetheless, the court ruled on May 24 that Leo was not entitled to live in a 35mx15m plot by a property order given to the Camden Council, which owns the land.
He is now facing an eviction from the plot, but has vowed to appeal.
It comes when the council is also planning to redevelop a large area of the street where Leo lives-including throwing new homes on and around his squats.
He said to the sun: “This land is mine. I don’t go anywhere! They have to run me, they have to drag me out.
“I’ll be back without going to jail.”
Leo has lived on the plot continuously since 2006-he lived there part-time for two years before he moved forever.
He sleeps under a blanket and a sleeping bag. The sleeping bag is partially covered with a mesh tarpaulin under the ramp.
Leo, who does not pay the council tax and receives no benefits, has neither electricity nor water.
Instead, he takes a shower at a local leisure center and receives a ration meal from a local church.
At the age of 54, she moved to the country as a graduate of mechanical engineering and came across the plot while looking for a place to live.
He claimed it was a quiet, “garbage dump and drug dosing” place, so he considered it his own and no one has bothered him ever since.
He used to be hired by a construction company, but now he’s doing strange jobs in the area, repairing walls, trading scrap metal and other handymen.
right
Leo, a single and childless man who turned his back on bricks and mortar in favor of feeling “the ground under my feet,” says that the law of unfavorable ownership gives him the right to land.
The principle is that a person who does not have legal ownership of the land can become the owner by owning it for a period sufficient (usually 10-12 years) to expel the real owner.
He attended the county court for a hearing, but he claimed to the court that he was “not allowed to present my evidence” and the only argument was a “monologue” between the judge and the lawyer. Met.
Leo is currently awaiting a court ruling on his peasant-it will take about a month and a half due to the backlog.
He admits that he “can’t stand the chance” if the police stand up to take him away.
But despite the intimidation, he says he has support for staying in his plot by the inhabitants and the local church.
It’s about the land I have the right to get
Leo Fieran
“I’m just a simple man. I don’t want to live at home, I want to feel the ground under my feet.
“It affected me, the council does not obey the law. It’s about the land I have the right to get.”
Leo also claims to have done “£ 60- £ 70k” worth of work in and around the area for three years to carry out “cement work” and “many other work”.
He pushed forward with what he would do if he was kicked out, saying, “If they really wanted to kick me out, I would go to the countryside of Hertfordshire and live in the woods.”
He concluded that: “This place was once a garbage dump … it has changed.”
A spokesman for the Camden Council said: “The place where Mr. Fieran is currently sleeping is not a safe environment and lacks the basic equipment for his health.
“He has been visited several times by the Council’s Routes off the Street’team, but so far the support provided has been denied.
“He is a member of the community and for several months the council has sought to support him with his housing options.
“In Camden, helping people get off the streets and rebuild their lives is our clear priority, and homeless and rough sleep for all people in this borough facing this predicament, including Mr. Fieran. We will continue to provide routes away from. “
