If you want to help this protest the information is in this communique. One small thought. We have been plagued by water shortages in this country. Fracking will take thousands of gallons of water out of the system and pollute it beyond belief. And as for us, we will have higher water bills and of course the obligatory hosepipe ban. The hosepipe ban does not apply to those who can get the servants to do the watering for them. Francis Maude MP for example - fracking Tory extraordinaire.
Since 7am on Thursday (25th) the community in Balcombe, Sussex has
been resisting attempts by fracking company Cuadrilla Resources to start
drilling in their village. They need your help!
The camp now has a postal address (you want to send letters of
support etc.): Balcombe Community Protection Camp, London Road,
Balcobme, W.Sussex, RH17 6JH
All are warmly invited to join Balcombe Village in a clear
demonstration of front-line protection against those that threaten us
and our environment.

Take Note!:
The Great Gas Gala! will be a clear demonstration of community
protection against the threat of harm to our health and environment
posed by the fracking industry. The industry is supported by the state
and therefore there will almost certainly be a police presence. Know
your rights and don’t be intimidated. The Gala will be an inclusive,
friendly space. We won’t be bullied.

See you at the Gala, it’ll be a gas!
