We protested against Gm potatoes

Preparing to leave Histon church

Little bit of media whoring
Little bit of media whoring

There be pirates!
There be pirates!

Speeches in the NIAB fields

The rapt attention of the crowds
The rapt attention of the crowds

And we had food after - yum
And we had food after - yum


We had around 60 demonstrators tramping over the NIAB fields to oppose the new GM potato crop trial just outside of Cambridge.

We recieved a lot of media attention and it was a fun day out for all the family including national speakers, country walks, shouting and all rounded off with delicious potato soup... oh! and don't forget the pirate trike sound system!
