Mainshill - eviction alert?

Details sketchy at present, but a bunch of cops in landrovers have just been spotted at Mainshill. Some were also thought to have been seen getting into climbing gear (can this be the police?) This follows a successful attempt earlier this evening to put a halt to the tree-felling by forcing the workers back to the top of the site.

It also follows yesterday's action against opencast coal mining:

It has been difficult to make contact with those on site - can someone in touch with people there check if things are ok?
