We have until 25th May to voice any objections to the DECC report asserting that it is safe for Cuadrilla to resume fracking at Preese Hall in Lancashire. This would be a dangerous precedent to allow the government to set unchallenged. This is the address to write to led.comment@decc.gsi.gov.uk. Details here of points to note in your objection.
Please also go to the 38 Degrees website here and vote for them to get behind the campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of fracking. Add comments too, to help them understand how important it is to get behind this campaign.

You might want to write to your Water Authorities/Companies, give them encouragement and ask their position on the threat that hydraulic fracturing poses to our water supplies. For more info, click here.
Send this letter to any Parish, District/Town Councillors in the UK. The drilling/fracking permissions/licenses have been getting through, partly through euphemistic subterfuge and partly because our Local Govmnt Representatives didn’t know what they were saying yes to. LETS’ MAKE SURE THEY NOW KNOW WHAT TO SAY NO TO!
(Use this quick tool to locate your District & County Councilors’ addresses)
Use this template letter to write to your MP/MEP, local businesses, Schools, Kindergartens, Hospitals, Councils, Wildlife Trusts, Water Companies, Farms etc… and anyone else you can think of … to raise awareness of threatened fracking.
Find your MP/MEPs email addresses here (send it by post too if you can, for greater effect) and encourage them to sign the Early Day Motion calling for a UK moratorium on fracking.
You could also email our local MP, Francis Maude, and tell him your thoughts about Hydraulic Fracturing in the village – francismaudemp@parliament.uk
Especially in the light of this revelation about Mr Maude’s appointment to the Cabinet Office, of Lord Browne, Director of Cuadrilla Holdings.
Do print out our Frack Free Zone flyers for doors, windows and cars -






You can also write to your MP – wherever you are in the UK – and ask her/him to support the Early Day Motion calling for a Moratorium on hydraulic fracturing.
Early Day Motion 2292 – HYDRAULIC FRACTURING (FRACKING) (No. 2)

Come on guys, its all well and good writing to MP’s and various politicians and educating the masses about this but what we need is real action – Peaceful protests, sit ins etc. I feel that what we are being told by government authorities isn’t the truth and we are letting the foothold take place under our noses.
Is anyone up for getting involved ?
Can you be in Manchester on 17th March?
Fraid not Miss Balaclava, I am already going to a protest in Hove (nxt door to Brighton) about the NHS cuts.
Please keep me informed of anything else.
Thanks – Iain
