Camden "Super Virus Lab" - Goverenment Response To Petition / Burglary & mail

Stop The Camden Animal Lab [Mandy] | 18.02.2009 19:54 | Animal Liberation | Bio-technology | Social Struggles | South Coast | World

There are plans to build a deadly virus lab in Camden on a Council house estate. The lab could be level 3 facility which means it could contain deadly viruses such as anthrax and bird flu. Foot and Mouth disease was leaked from similar govt faciltiy Pirbright in Surrey. The lab has been criticised by MI5, MPs, councillors, residents and businesses. The govt has responded to this online. Our mailbox card was stolen [and returned] ...see below.

The government has responded to the online petition saying that the lab will not test on cats, dogs or primates.
They are claiming that they will provide work for local people which is unlikely.
They are claiming that the lab counts as "regeneration" to the area.
They have said that they will be "dealing" with security concerns.


Recently our mailbox card was stolen [and returned] as part of a break in at my flat. We beleive that the person responsible went to our mailbox unauthorised and helped himself to mail...mail that was sent has not been recieved by us....If you have sent anything in the past month then please resend it. We know that some people have written to us and are wondering why we have not replied...this is why.

Any postal orders or cheques that have been sent would have been crossed and therefore uncashable.

We have instructed the mailbox centere that from now on the ONLY Mandy Ford will be picking up the mail and no-one else.

We know who was responsible for taking the card and this will not happen again. This is not the fault of staff at the mailbox centre as they only give mail to someone with the card.

I can't apologise enough to anyone who sent anything. If you receive any odd replies from "us" then please ignore them.

From now on the mailbox card etc will be kept somewhere else so that this can't happen again.

This campaign is a good one.

It is a shame it is being taken forward by someone who is unstable and has caused the very animals she proclaims to care about to lose out on funding by slandering people.

She is doing this for her own personal gain to have attention she desires and for people to focus on her and not the real issues.

Be careful with this person running this campaign - she is making a mockery of AR

DIVIDE AND RULE AND YOU SHALL CONQUER
