Thanks SB, looks like a successful action. Not exactly supportive reporting from the graun. The beeb took an equally severe tone, though it made the front page on their website which I don't think the previous days of actions had done: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-54038591 It also included this snide remark: 'Newsprinters also condemned the protests as an "attack on all of the free press", which it said had affected workers going about their jobs and others such as newsagents who faced "financial penalty".' As if they give a shit... Token soundbites from the activists and police, industry & govt figures given ample space to denounce them with no comeback. They don't like it up 'em! I
