EVICTION UNDERWAY NOW!!!!
URGENT request for someone to set up a BREAKING NEWS feature...(don't know how to...). Have had phone calls from south wales that Costains have, overnight, got a licence to continue trashing the woods even though there was an instruction to stop from the Countryside Commission for Wales, via the Welsh Assembly, because of dormouse colonies (and bat roosts) on the route. Apparently one night is all it takes to overcome any legal objections to massacring wildlife. The Permanent campers had left site as a result of the dodgy 'Harry Potter' injunction brought against them, and so the site was unoccupied when the contractors moved in this morning. Unsure whether people are still occupying the strip of land which was still in the posssession on a local landowner, but requisitioned by Costains for their road working...trying to organise getting down to site from lancaster...but people need to get bodies down there NOW to see what is salvagable. Big modified JCB with tree-crunching arm has made it out of its compound and through barricades to camp. Mucho destruction. This is an AROOOGA...
Network it as far as possible but for god's sake get down there...more bodies on site before now might have avoided this...
