Footpath, Footpath
A long night was spent ensuring the safety of the camp, in 100mph winds. Unfortunately, the Tech Tent / Tea Tent was lost to the elements. This was the communal tent where people spent time away from the wind and rain, while still being able to see onto the path.
At 0830hours, the Barton Moss Protectors were able to stop the iGas trucks from using and damaging the Barton Moss “Road” Public Footpath.

Our Livestreamers protect the protectors and activists from being strong armed by the police, but our equipment has a shorter life due to being out on all weathers and situations. If you want to support the Livestreamers, please donate via the Paypal Account: nemogbr@yahoo.co.uk.
There is a travelling fund and for legal costs set up to assist the protectors.
