Still a bit of a standoff but here are some developments -

The owner has now showed up apparently to talk to residents about the site. Meanwhile the villagers remain up tripods over the main gate to the site and on the roof of an on-site building. A cherry-picker has showed up but as I understand it the local residents, who earlier joined the eco villagers in blockading the main gate, have now occupied the picker ... awesome!!

This is not over by a long shot. Please get down to the village as there is everything to be won today. Bailiffs are still discussing the potential of just tipping tripods with people up in them. Any video cameras that can be taken down there are VITAL to stop the bailiffs from going nuts.
