coverage

31.08.2006 11:22

reasonable ammount of coverage on the BBC ( didn't hear the mention that Centrica ( formerly british gas before theft ) have bought ( most ) of next years electirc output from Drax, nor the large shareholder payout.nor that they are suing the EU over carbon credits. Just price rise after price rise. Still class war mate.

Anyway coverage on BBC radio 4 news ( one unnamed "euphoric" protestor :) ) and a large portion from You and Yours featuring drax rep and Alice from trapeze - front page radio 4 shows a belching station as it is main feature.  http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/index.shtml?logo

Now let's take some land for a permaculture revolution.

Eco-activists in support from mainstream media shocker :)

Brilliant!

Been listening to the mainstream news updates and coverage has been mostly positive. Alice did really well on Radio 4 midday news especially seeing as she was put against the electric board blokie and a Drax rep (two against one, hardly fair!).

Wish I was still there. Good luck everyone; you rule!

i'm watching this from the streets of Paris and feel a heart full of respect for those out in the feilds and on the front lines of this battle. History will judge us and so will our children. Good luck.

i think the media are fairly sympathetic because the anti-coal power action dovetails with the plans for a lucrative expansion of nuclear power.
