11th January deadline to oppose plans for Nocton Mega-Dairy
NOCTON Dairies has resubmitted its planning application for a 3770 cow dairy
farm in Lincolnshire, intending to increase the capacity to 8,100 if it can get
away with it. Oppose the plans at

If it goes ahead, it will be the largest in the UK and will imprison 3,770 cows
in sheds with concrete floors over 22 acres. The farm will have 24hr milking
parlours and will produce 430,000 pints of milk daily.
Not only will this be a breeding ground for disease and cause a huge amount of
suffering to the imprisoned animals, is will also mean the destruction of a
wonderful landscape in which plenty of wild birds and other animals live.
This is a call to anyone against this monstrosity to make their voices heard!

Week of action against Beyond Retro
Monday 10th January 2011 to Friday 14th January
Unless their new year’s resolution is to go fur free, Beyond Retro will be
entering 2011 with a headache!
Activists around the world have been campaigning against this unethical company
for a number of months now, with protests at the head office and stores in
London, their Brighton store and demonstrations at the home of the managers in
Canada.
However, Beyond Retro has continued to make a profit from the skins of tortured
animals, so it’s time to remind them that cruelty has consequences!
There will be international protest actions taking place daily throughout the
second week of January, with details (meeting places/times etc) being announced
nearer the time.
We are also asking people to contact Beyond Retro (via phone and email) during
the week of action, so even if you can’t attend any protests, you can still
help us to keep the pressure on them.
