Anti-Fracking Demonstration in Manchester

The anti-fracking demonstration in Manchester was attended by well over 1000 people with scarcely a police officer in sight which  sharply contrasts with the political policing at Barton Moss with the Tactical Aid Unit being continuously deployed.    The Barton Moss Protectors were to the fore and they are calling for maximum support in the face of an eviction threat.   The momentum is undoubtedly with the anti-fracking movement and a recent poll in Manchester suggested almost 75% opposed to fracking.
