Eye Say No To Waste!, Eye Airfield, Suffolk - 27th February 2011

Moves are afoot to build some humongous waste-incineration plant somewhere in Suffolk, and Eye Airfield is apparently on the list (despite being as far away from most of the county as it's possible to get). Therefore a demonstration is called for, and MPs David Ruffley and Daniel Poulter rock up to show their support. There are over 200 people in attendance, plus a film crew from local TV as well as the Diss Express photographer. Nosher, Isobel and Fred show up too - partly because demos are always good for a photo or two, but also to show some solidarity with the cause.
