Default EDF's vengeful £5m to sue Protesters

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environmen...climate-change




http://www.channel4.com/news/edf-sue...aceful-protest


This was Debated yesterday on BBC1 The Big Question.


I want EDF to Win
as Electric Power is more Important
than some women up a EDF Tower.
They could Protest Outside
No need to Invade.

Nobody would pay attention if they just politely held banners up outside. I support them here, and the £5m figure is just a corporation trying to crush the little guy.

People up and down the country protest politely and no one ever hears a word about them. The French have the right ideas about protesting. They don't mess around.

Got to agree with JHC here. We should be more "French" when it comes to protesting. And as EDF is owned entirely by the French government, we should definitely stick it to them Johnny Frenchie style.

Won't find too many more self righteous people than climate-change activists, maybe peaceful protest wouldn't achieve a huge amount (but then neither has this) and why necessarily should it, that's part of the problem with these sort of protesters; they expect their cause to be one that all reasonable and caring people should uncritically support and if you don't then there's something wrong with you
