Sure, just make sure you are in there when it is due to be demolished, that way they won't be able to take action against you ever again.

Yes, it'll probably be illegal. The house will either be owned by the council up until it is demolished, or the land it is on will be owned by someone.

There is no difference between going into that house and going into a council house, or onto a farmer's field without his permission.

But it seems pretty stupid to go into a house which is due to be demolished anyway. The reason could be that it is structurally unsound, and if it isn't now then it will be when the bulldozer moves in.

Well i know i is considered trespassing in the US if the building has boards on it, other than that if you do get caught you it probably wont be much trouble

Probably classed as trespassing but it's only illegal if you get caught ;) also it could be unsafe so be cautious

Yes, it is called trespassing. It is illegal everywhere.

If it's scheduled for demolition by all means. I doubt you'll get a trespassing charge unless you doing something else illegal.
