Unguided Tour Of Sizewell

On June 1st, fourteen people scaled the fence at Sizewell B and headed for the reactor. They walked through the contractor’s site and up to a security camera, monitor and guard, who was asleep, and woke him up (so that they could wave to him). Most of the people then went into the portacabins and stayed there. Two of the protesters climbed another fence and made it into the reactor building and down into the control room (pressing all the buttons ?!?) with no security or alarms going off even though they deliberately pulled a few tripwires in a moment of boredom. They stayed in the main control room for over an hour until one of them decided to get up onto the golfball dome of the reactor. (Nuclear Electric deny this, well, they would...)

The police eventually caught 2 protesters, and took the name of one of the protesters as Dr Myher from the Freedom Institute in Berlin even though he kept slipping between a German accent and a Norfolk accent. They re-entered the site later in the day.

The anti-nuclear protesters occupied the nuclear site for eleven hours, unfurling banners and letting off red smoke bombs. There was, according to the papers, no attempt by police or security to eject the protesters, there were also no arrests.

It seems that they are delivering two rods a week to the site even though it has not yet got the go ahead...hum...
