Shock Exposé: B&NES To Slash 90% Of Public Sector Jobs

Work was stopped for just over half an hour yesterday, as people tried to lock-on to the harvesting machine, but people were met with aggression and violence by the Scottish Woodland workers.

Workers kicked people off the cab of the harverster, roughed people around, and one worker jumped from the cab at someone taking a photo, grabbed their camera and smashed it into the mud.

For over one and a half hours, hundreds of corporate lobbyists wishing to attend the annual Business Europe conference were prevented from entering the Charlemagne building in Brussels this morning.

The Climate action group Climate Alarm!, consisting of activists from Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Germany, blocked the main entrance to the conference.

A protest for a new start in the struggle against the "world genetic order" and against GMO entry in Europe.

At 4.30 am, the nine occupiers of the chimney stack at Didcot power station came down and were immediately arrested. That brings the total arrests to 20, after the 11 locked on to the coal conveyors were arrested in the first 24 hours.

"We waited for this night.
When we said to ourselves, "Enough!"
That night, we have proclaimed the beginning of the continuation of the struggle.
Wrestling on another front.
Against those who despite the protests of the people, ruthlessly destroy nature for profit or any other objectives.

At 7.30am this morning, two people locked-on to harvesting machinery attempting to make its way into Mainshill Wood, in an ongoing struggle to stop work at the site and stop Scottish Coal's attempts to turn the site into an opencast coal mine.

Kayapó Indians are to hold a protest against a huge hydro-electric dam planned for Brazil’s Xingu River, one of the Amazon’s main tributaries.

This morning at around 7am the access road being used by loggers and other contractors to gain access to Mainshill Wood was blockaded by residents at the Mainshill Solidarity Camp.

Work has now been stopped for over five hours, with two big barricades and two people locked-on.

Climate campaigners have this morning (26.10.09) shut down N-Power’s flagship coal plant at Didcot in Oxforshire.

To the dawn of Tuesday 20 October a group of activists of Earth First! Rome have begun the campaign of awakening in view of the vertex on the climate that will have been to Copenaghen since November 30 to December 10.

Today 20 activists from Earth First! (1) stopped work at UK Coal's opencast coal mine near Shipley (2), Derbyshire. The protesters entered the site at 9.20am and climbed on top of machinery, intending to stay as long as possible, they are currently occupying 6 vehicles. This protest is part of a campaign to stop new coal mines and coal power stations in the UK. It follows hot on the heels of last week's Climate Swoop at Ratcliffe-on-Soar power station, where coal from Shipley is burnt.

Update: 3 or 400 people came and massed. We caused cycle traffic jams for ourselves, but actually managed to ride more freely when we got onto the 3 lane dual carriageways - ah, first time I've been glad to ride on those!
