26 Oct.

Protesters fighting to stop massive hydro dams being built in Iceland yesterday brought their campaign to Lochaber where they blockaded the entrance to an aluminium smelter.

Two women and three men were arrested at British Alcan's plant in Fort William.

The Alcan Song:

It’s ALCAN the Aluminium Man
The Aluminium Man with the Aluminium Plan
For making lots of aluminium
Out of other peoples land!

Will this Man of Aluminium
Realize what he's done,
Once he's done what he is about to start?
He's got aluminium, but he's got no heart!
