THIS LAND IS OUR LAND.

       The Douglas Valley in South Lanarkshire is a place of significant beauty, a place that all communities should be able to enjoy. However, the corporate greed beast sees it as a profit making entity, and have every intention of turning into a large black hole in the ground. They have plans to turn it into one large open air factory, to the corporate world, coal means profit and profit always takes precedent over people and communities. This destruction of the environment and the local communities, receives no publicity or condemnation from the mainstream media, as we should expect, as they are part and parcel of the corporate world and no friend of the people. A better name for the mainstream media is one I heard some time ago, "A Babbling Brook of Bullshit." It is up to the people to publicise the rape and plunder of our heritage and defend that which by right is ours.

 An appeal from Take Back The land,



         There’s just days to go until a week of action against opencast coal in the Douglas Valley – a place where the ruling class is crushing communities for their own financial gain, where ecological destruction is taking place on a massive scale for the profits of big energy companies and where absentee fat-cat land-lords make millions off land that shouldn’t be theirs
        *Join us 12-18 July in the Douglas Valley, South Lanarkshire, to build on 20 years of community struggle and four years of direct action against the UK’s biggest opencast mining company.*
         *Help us spread the word:
        *Please pass on our call-out to your friends.
