The next stage is for the lawyers (Eversheds) to respond with how they would like to proceed - pursue me for contempt of court and these costs or accept that this is an unjust use of our legal system and clear victimisation of peaceful protest, aimed at deterring further actions by communities in defence of the health and well-being of their children against this dangerous industry.
STATEMENT::
With respect to the District Judge and the courts I have huge admiration for a system of justice that is fair but I feel in this case that our law courts are not being used to seek justice but instead being applied like a weapon and a threat against peaceful protest.
The fact that Cuadrilla has the finances, power and vindictiveness to pursue this through our courts is an abuse of one of the most valued aspects of our democracy.
So please accept my aplogies if this seems rude but as this case has nothing to do whatsoever with justice, I will not be complying with any requests for information or payment.
I make this statement on behalf of myself and an entire movement who will not be bullied.
This is a clear travesty of 'justice', especially as the site wasn't even occupied on eviction day. Has the court not noted this? Cameron may have other things on his mind but a supportive peer at least should be brought on side. I commend Tina Louise Rothery, The Nana's and all who work tirelessly to save our UK from fracking. We need you even more now that brexit has lost support from EU.
