The Gazette: ‘A case of David and Goliath’

Anti-fracking campaigners say they have “not even started fighting yet” in their campaign against Cuadrilla.

The newly-formed Roseacre Awareness Group (RAG) has made the claim after energy company Cuadrilla held a public information event to discuss its plans for the village with residents.

The energy firm is looking to explore sites in Roseacre and Little Plumpton.

Barry Warner, from RAG, said: “What we’ve got at the moment is a classic case of David and Goliath.

“We’ve got a very rich organisation which I think is trying to steamroller their planning application through and I think what they’re hoping is people sleepwalk into it, but we have not yet begun to fight.”  MORE
