39 TREES VERSUS 32 CARS - Ballasalla (IOM)

Lone eco-activist "White Seagull" has been fasting in his treehouse in order to protect a local beauty spot and the environment of the Isle Of Mann. His fast has lasted from November 22nd, until today's planning review for the proposed 32 space car park in Silverdale Glen, Ballasalla, Isle of Man. He is prepared to continue his campaign until land owners The Dept of Forestries Fisheries and Agriculture (DAFF) propose a viable alternative and act to preserve the trees, wildlife habitat and ancient walkways, for future generations.
