Titnore Case lost but protest continues

Over in Titnore woods, Worthing protesters have taken to the trees to demonstrate against proposals to build 875 new homes and an even bigger Tescopoly. On Thursday (27th July) protesters lost their civil trespass case in the high court. Corporate lawyers and the cops are treating the case as trespass rather than a protest and, if the appeal is lost, eviction could happen in early August. Police have been going round to local hardware shops pressurising staff into refusing to serve people from the camp. So there's a call out for more stuff and people to help resist any eviction. The area is abundant with wildlife which could include endangered species, so if you're a bug expert, please go along!
