2nd Landslide Win Against Biofuel Power At Newport, South Wales

13-09-2009 08:52

A second win, 8:1 against the madness of burning food for fuel. This time against Vogen’s biofuel power station application at Newport was achieved on Sept 9th. Residents and campaigners walked out in protest at the Chair’s attempts to manipulate councillors with talk of lost capital for hospitals & schools + shouts of “shame” to those promoting industry interests before residents. One councillor described the behaviour of Vogen in their so-called ‘public meeting’ of 2 weeks ago as "tyrannical".

DSEi Day 2 and Disarm goes to ExCEL

09-09-2009 16:36

Today being the second day of DSEi, a group of about 20 had arranged to meet up and head for the ExCEL Centre. FIT were down the road from LARC and more turned up at Freedom, so no element of surprise was possible. We met up in a local park, and set off, attracting an ever larger gaggle of cops on the way to Tower Gateway, with more joining the throng at the station. By the time we got onto the train, there were almost as many cops as protestors. Arriving at Custom House DLR, one member of the group was pulled aside for a search under Section 1 for drugs. The rest of the group were escorted up the stairs to a walkway overlooking the centre and platform, where the sound system was switched on, banners put up and delegates generally abused using a powerful megaphone. The glass on the side of the walkway proved very effective for banging on as delegates gathered on the platform below.
