Mainshill Solidarity Camp Update: Final eviction notice issued, Lord Home investigated for fraud & tell Apex to stop drilling

Main­shill Sol­i­dar­i­ty Camp Updates:

The Camp was vis­it­ed by a Sher­iff Offi­cer today who issued occu­piers with a notice declar­ing that Scot­tish Coal and Dou­glas & Angus Estates have incurred sub­stan­tial finan­cial loss­es becuase of the occu­pa­tion, and that if occu­piers do not leave by 10:00am tomor­row (Tues­day 7th) morn­ing they will be removed by force.

There is no indi­ca­tion as to when the evic­tion will begin, but the camp is prepar­ing for it to start tomor­row, so we are call­ing for as many peo­ple as pos­si­ble to come to the camp to defend it against any attempt by court bailiffs or police to evict the site!

Please join us, see http://mainshill.noflag.org.uk/ for direc­tions.

The site is now well defend­ed and the camp and local com­mu­ni­ties are as deter­mined as ever that coal will not be mined here! Join us at the camp to build and dig, and sup­port the com­mu­ni­ty strug­gle against Scot­tish Coal and Lord Home. For direc­tions, reg­u­lar updates and more infor­ma­tion go to: mainshill.noflag.org.uk

We want democ­ra­cy, not cor­rupt aris­toc­ra­cy! Lord Home, the land own­er, is being inves­ti­gat­ed by the FBI and Scot­land Yard for fraud (http://coalactionedinburgh.noflag.org.uk/?p=542)

Tell Apex to stop drilling at Main­shill Wood (http://coalactionedinburgh.noflag.org.uk/?p=547)
