Indymedia York

Its been brought to my attention that, with the exception of the odd car load, very little transport if any has been organised to recent protests at either RAF Fylingdales or NSA Menwith Hill, both of which are relatively close to York.

For those who don't know, Fylingdales is beyond Pickering and is part of the UK's radar tracking system (made available to Bush for Missile Defence). Menwith is just beyond Harrogate, and is the largest American spy base in the world. Technically its occupied territory.

Protests are organised at both locations during October's Keep Space 4 Peace week, and at Menwith on July 4th. Sometimes theres other protests as well. Menwith once saw a 5000 strong protest, but the most seen there recently has been about 150.
