The camp got extensive mass media coverage of the issues, though in its later days a war and some people being energetic in a repressive regime meant it didn't get as much coverage as it should have.
The climate criminals even went to the extent of building an electric fence, so they have been put to a lot of inconvenience.
Did they close the place down? We don't know at the moment. Concentrating on the plant itself was obviously a feint. The campers correctly identified the weakest point of any centralised electricity system with small numbers of large plants, the transmission lines. They had climbers on one of these, no idea about the rest. They should have used fluorescent tubes as potential indicators to see whether the transmission lines were energised or not.
Given their record any claims by the climate criminals about the station operating should be taken with a large pinch of salt. These criminals claimed that if the place was shut down the lights would go out in Kent. Utter nonsense, as anyone who understands electricity systems will explain.
