EDO MBM Singing in the rain, last day of peace camp

Smash EDO were singing and bashing bin lids in the rain for the pleasure of EDO on the last day of their peace camp. Whilst some parts of the region suffered flash floods the peace protesters gathered themselves one more time to in their fight against EDO MBM.

MAKE SOME NOISE

I'm singing in the rain, just singing in the rain . .

Sounds like opera to me

As the rain fell spirits were high. The noise from such a determined group was so much that it was difficult to hear the lorries driving past honking their horns. The event passed peacefully with no arrests and later the camp was dismantled and cleared leaving the wood as it had been found.

As it had been found?

Leaving the wood as it had been found. Who are you trying to kid? I checked myself, and can only assume that you found it covered with litter, condoms, broken trees and branches, and what I can only guess at what must have been the latrine!

You lot are nothing but a disgrace.

Woodsman you are talking absolute rubbish but then it's in your interest to do so. Maybe you could provide some evidence to back your statement up! If a mess really was left then i'm sure the council could make a statement. Maybe Lynch could help with this...

Maybe you're the same person who posted lies after Jaya Sacca was arrested. Lies, Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies,Lies...

A real woodsman

Woods in good condition

so the woods aren't exactly as they were a week ago. What a surprise! Yes, there are a few broken branches and some crumbs can be found but the whole site was cleared and wood chippings scattered where necessary as anyone who goes up there can see.

woodsman is a liar. the place is fine. Nothing broken.eco friendly. Well done everyone who cleaned up.

Unfortunately i did also see an ugly sight further down the hill. Someone appears to have left a large bomb factory with EDO written all over it. i can only assume this belongs to EDO corporation who make
a real mess out of other countries with their products and have recently been taken to court by the US federal government and fined 1.5 million dollars by the US judiciary for leaving their Deer park factory in new york polluted with poisonous chemicals. EDO call it 'environmental remediation charges'. I say its corporate crime against the earth, by mass murders and eco-killers.

EDO are more than a disgrace. They are an abhorent organisation who kill kids for cash.

That after the peace camp the EDO factory still stands.

Hallilujah! What a success! Really brought the war machine to their knees that did!

Even if the condom story was true - its better leaving a conmdom ( didn't say whether it was used or not ) in some woods than Woodsman and his mates at Guardian Guards and EDO helping to bomb kids - but thats OK isn't it mate. Sleep easy.
