This morning (22 Feb 2001) at approximately 10:30am protestors have begun blockading Sainsbury's regional distribution centres around the country, preventing them from supplying Sainsbury's supermarkets with GM-fed animal produce because of their failure to follow recent moves by other supermarket chains in announcing a date by which all own-brand animal products will be from animals raised on a GM free diet. These images comes from the protest at Basingstoke - where 4 people were eventually arrested, having locked-on underneath a lorry, blocking the access to the depot.
