GOOD WILL HUNTINGTON

Activists at Huntington Lane protest site are manning the barricades, occupying the treehouses and descending into tunnels after UK Coal won a possession order last Friday (15th).

The Shropshire camp was established 18 months ago to prevent an environmentally devastating new coal mine from being built on 230 acres of ancient woodland (see SchNEWS 714, 744).

Cops and bailiffs are expected to trot up en masse at any point, so the campers are issuing an urgent call-out for bodies to defend the site. See www.defendhuntingtonlane.wordpress.com
