Ashton Court's Still There

The police threat to evict Ashton Court protest camp if they didn't leave by the Ashton Court Festival weekend seems to have been a lot of hot air. Local activists tatted down one camp, but the other went on alert ready to resist forcible removal...which never happened. So the campaign is back in full swing, ready for September's 'habitat translocation'. That’s where Pioneer Quarry company arrange to slice off the top layer of the meadow and put it somewhere else, on different soil; thereby “protecting” the 89 species that just possibly liked their habitat where it was. To help stop this nonsense, contact the camp on their mobile phone.
