...................
As on a previous visit, the office was locked down in honour of the protest - though no-one actually came to visit Mr Ferguson during that time anyway (except the postie, who was escorted to the door by a police officer) - and there was a strong police presence. The video aims to give some of the flavour of the occasion.

An Introduction to ACE -
Friends of the Earth's Anti-Nuclear and Clean Energy (ACE) campaign has been going strong for over 35 years. We campaign against the nuclear industry because of its appalling treatment of indigenous people, its repeated contribution to WMD proliferation, and its long-term environmental impacts. And we campaign to promote clean energy solutions to climate change.
