Alice In Tarmacland

Tarmac AGM 16th July This year Tarmac's AGM was considerably more interesting than usual. The meeting was attended by shareholders with a conscience, who raised embarrassing questions relating to Tarmac's environmental policy, particularly relating to the hideous mess they have made of Twyford Down.

At one stage, however, the Chair decreed that questions could only be asked after the vote. "Sentence first verdict afterwards". Dreadlocks were banned from the meeting. Nevertheless many points were raised to prick consciences. Sir Eric Poultain, Chairman (sic) of Tarmac, stated that "we all respect the environment, we have to live in it"(!!!). This year's AGM lasted well over an hour, seriously interrupting the rich and powerful ones' drinking time.

Security for the meeting was carried out by Group 4. Further details of Group 4's involvement at Twyford Down can be obtained on Freephone 0800 440 000.
