The Great Climate Swoop
Ratcliffe-on-Soar, Nottinghamshire, 17-18 October
Hmm. Couldn’t manage to be at this one but have been keeping an eye on events there courtesy of the Climate Camp website, Twitter (#swoop), Indymedia etc.
Two interesting little snippets caught my eye, from the Notts Indymedia timeline…
October 17, 2009 19:33 – Reports arrive that, contrary to the Police’s press release, the policeman who collapsed went dizzy from overheating, fell over and hit his head on somebody’s knee on the way down. There was definitely no violence involved in that incident. The innuendo in the police press release is ridiculous.
And a bit earlier…
October 17, 2009 18:02 – Injured protester’s ambulance took about an hour, cop’s took about 3mins.
