POLICE were called to a council meeting in Worthing on Friday June 10 after protesters stormed the stage.

The borough council's planning committee was discussing highly controversial plans to build 900 homes and widen a road through woodland in Titnore Lane, Durrington, Worthing.
The intervention began after meeting chairman, Tory John Livermore, refused to take any more questions from the public at the packed hall, which was being used as an emergency council chamber because of the massive local interest.
While security staff ejected one protester, others occupied the stage, unfurling a large banner and forcing councillors to flee.
Police eventually removed all the protesters from the hall, after a half hour interruption, while chanting continued outside the front doors. There were no arrests

...that its so crazy that you have this mad alternative scene in Worthing, and then the hinterland of Sussex is soooo soooo conservative in many ways. (not neccessarily the real English locals, but rather british colonialist snobs) I remember those old school 'peace convoy' (the real deep goddess stuff, Deker Lynn type vibe etc etc, not the drug dealing superficialities/distraction/barrier) idealisms about the countryside being full of buses and teppees and benders and deep sound goddess living. Has it happened? Like fuck. Goddess protect the visonaries! So there you are on the edge of the wealden woodland and countryside...it shouldn't be like that...you should be inhabiting the entire area. How is this ever going to happen with the headcasees that you have around here...the heartland of the 'british bastard' ...the property owning mason sktiz pysco. How is this ever going to happen the way the 'power' is (government power) in twitish old bwitain. How the fuck would I know?... I'm just some paranoid skitzaphrenic, flagged up as a danger to your kids. (and thats just in the 'alternative scene'). Oh but there was all those prophecies of a breaking of the masonic (actually ritual child abuse generated) hegmony over the people and reality here and thus the literal folding out of new and auspicious consciousness to the extent that the very reality changes auspiciously by this magical process. (at this time). So whats delaying this shapeshift? Good question. Maybe the karmic trap that these total fucking scum have made is so evil such a nightmare that 'you' are stuck in it...maybe...maybe if you're very very nice to me, offer me free cannabis and nice girls, then I'll think about cooperating.
