Saturday \'No Trident/Troops Out\' demo

24-02-2007 18:48

STWC said over 100,000 but apparently the police were saying just 4,000 at some point. Personally, bassed on how full trafalgar square seemed I\'d guess at something between 50,000 and 70,000. But who can tell, it was certainly big, bigger than any nuclear related marches i\'ve ever attended.

Poland's anti-road camp needs u

24-02-2007 02:26

The Rospuda Valley", host to Europe's last remaining primeval forest and home to myriad rare species e.g bison and lynx, is possibly about to be bulldozzzed into the anals of history, to make way for the kind of "smooth and dense infrastructure that is necessary for europe to function".
