April 17, 2012 | Protect the Wilderness, the group that reopened the
Wildernes Centre for environmental education after it had been closed to be
sold, appeared for court to stand in defense against the government's bid
to evict them.
However, only three people were allowed into the building. The rest -
including a named defendant as well as "persons unknown" - were barred from
entering by private security who hid their badge numbers, and later by
police.
Two days later, police and bailiffs arrived for a dawn eviction at the
Wilderness Centre.

>From Protect the Wilderness:
Following the The appeal of the Peasants
(see http://bristol.indymedia.org/article/708316 )
We simple peasants were not allowed into our own appeal hearing, in Bristol
Civil Justice Centre....
No right no appeal, even though they took our £100 pound - for an appeal.
even the "named individuals" who the police said were allowed in, were left
outside as none of them had their ID
Oh, and one of the named individuals was "persons unknown".... he/she/it
forgot to bring an ID too...
