Where the hell is security?
US aircraft damaged at Shannon, peace protesters entering Fairford, Brize, Leuchars etc but yesterday (11th March) protesters cut the perimeter wired fence at Lakenheath and entered the taxitrack and apparently runway area riding bicycles, chaining themselves together in a sit down protest.
F15's slowly passing by, they should just have opened up the taps and selected reheat. Kentucky Fried.
The most disturbing part of all of this is that the Chief Reporter for ITV Anglia Region, John Francis, was filing his report with all protestors doing their bit in the background, if he knew it was about to happen why did not the Gun Totin' cops stop it from happening?
At the main base entrance, the public road has been closed between the domestic and airfield site, with UK and US Civvy and Military Police armed to the teeth.
A similar situation, causing absolute chaos, occurs at the nearby Mildenhall base. What the hell is the point of all of this firepower if 9 unarmed protesters can cut through a wire fence and prevent aircraft operations taking place on bikes!!
