        In the early hours of 29th October 2012, sixteen UK activists from No Dash For Gas scaled the 300ft chimney of West Burton, the first in a new fleet of up to twenty high polluting gas fired power stations sanctioned by the Coalition government. They succeeded in shutting down the power station and halting construction for a week by occupying the chimney. EDF Energy is suing these activists and their friends for £5m. This corporation is threatening to indenture peaceful protesters as a means of stifling opposition to its role in destroying people and planet. We should all be watching this trial, and standing for No Dash for Gas.
