On Saturday the 11th of August the UK Police stated that they would use anti-terrorist
legislation to break the Heathrow Climate Change Camp, since then they have
placed a press embargo on the camp and refused toilet and hygeine facilities to the
protestors.
The indymedia.org.uk site is covering on features and the Guardian has interviewed
a cross- section of protestors opposed to the airport expansion.

Thus far protestors have been arrested without charging and denied legal advice.
The Guardian covers the issue from the local residents viewpoint and has interesting interviews
with the activists who range from a vicar to womble activists!
