Last weekend saw a continuation of the land and housing struggle of recent weeks in the Lavender Hill area of Cape Town, reports Indymedia South Africa. "On Saturday 19 November 2005, City Police and Cape Town City Council Law Enforcement arrived to mark shacks in the new settlement in St Montague Village. This settlement - which still lacks a name - is made up of about 500 families who settled on the land since last weekend (11 November 2005). On Friday they - along with many other Hillview and St Montague Village residents - were served with a court order prohibiting them from extending their shacks or putting up any further dwellings."
