14-11-2012 18:05

At the second day of eviction the cops evicted everybody from the trees. At the evening of the first day they evicted everybody in concrete-lock-ons. Now there's one activist in a blockade-tunnel rested. And police don't have any idea how to evict that. So it still can need some days.
Police that went down just said: "there's a huge tunnel-system, we don't know wich direction we have to go"
The occupation of the forest is against a coal open-cast-mine, that is together with two more of this, the biggest producer of CO2 in Europe. The dust of the pit is radioactiv.

This sccheme will be provided by TGB learning who will be working to the payment by results TGB Learning who will be working to the payment by results model’ the Government has now introduced. A model which has little to do with finding young people work and everything to do with harrasing them off benefits.

The scheme will be mandatory, so anyone refusing to take part without good reason will face losing their benefits.

Those jobseekers who don't complete the eight week programme will have to go back on the programme If they return to Jobseekers Allowance within 26 weeks.
