Students who lived in rodent infested accommodation get £400,000 in compensation.

They had been embroiled in a dispute with University College London over living conditions.

Freddy Mackee was one of the students living in the accommodation, he says "we were receiving pictures all the time (of rats) from people living in our building. One day I saw two really scared women outside the flat asking for help, when I went inside I just saw this dead rat and I had to pick him up and move it."

Angus O'Brien from the University College London Union helped mobilise the campaign for compensation, he says "the students led this, they were the ones living in a construction site for months."
