DODEWAARD NUCLEAR POWER
STATION HOLLAND
14th December 2000
Spent fuel from the now closed power station is sent to Sellafield UK for
reprocessing causing radioactive pollution to the ground, sea and air and is
the most likely cause of leukaemia clusters in the nearby town of Seascale.
In order to stop a spent fuel shipment leaving the plant
KARE attempts to blockade a bridge which is the only access to Dodewaard nuclear
power station.
Unfortunately it is thwarted by road blocks and a massive police presence never
seen before.
Two men, however, managed to get our banner

just 25m from bridge.

Lost train set is found behind the counter - they thought some children had
left it there!!
Telephone calls to Direct Rail Services, HMIP, etc etc no one wants to speak
to Mark Thomas phoning from the visitor centre!.
Police arrive as we are leaving & take Mark back inside.
Thro' the window we see that Mark Thomas soon has the Police laughing, about
what we did not know.
They take him to their car, are they going to arrest him?
No, they just want his autograph and ask him, "Are we going to be on telly?"

THE OPENING OF BRADWELL'S £1/4 MILLION VISITOR CENTRE
EC BUILDING - BRUSSELS - 15th December 1993
Protestors from all over Europe gathered amidst rain and hailstones outside
the EC building where a meeting of EC environment ministers was in progress.
A delegation was sent requesting the ministers hear our protests with respect
to the proposed opening of the THORP reprocessing plant. They were initially
refused that demand until an extremely loud wailing siren was used to such
a level that those inside the building could not hear each other speak. The
request was accepted and our protests were entered into the minutes of their
meeting.
