My phone was hot all morning with journalists seeking reactions. Always happy to oblige:
BBC Radio Wales: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01p7kvs/Good_Evening_Wales_13_12_2012/ (from 1:05:58 to 1:11:30 and 2:13:12 to 2:18:48) ITV Wales: http://www.itv.com/news/wales/story/2012-04-17/controversial-fracking-could-resume-in-lancashire/ Walesonline/Glamorgan Gazette pg2: http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/2012/12/13/new-fears-of-fracking-in-south-wales-as-gas-firm-submits-test-drill-bid-91466-32414357/#sitelife-commentsWidget-bottom (checkout the comments below the online piece – please score them appropriately) It was also good to see and hear some other familiar people on other coverage from around the country. Vanessa Vine (BIFF) and Tony Bosworth (FoE) – two people I count as friends these days from meeting and talking to them so often – feature prominently throughout the whole hour of this EXCELLENT Nicky Campbell phone -in show. (I was rung by Radio 5 and put on standby for the whole hour – but was not used. Vanessa was superb though; as was the very emotional lady called Lizzie!!) And you can watch Vanessa get furious here! Probably lots of other coverage around the regions too. We will keep on battling away to raise public awareness of what is at stake, and ensure the frackers and their friends in Government are held to account every step of the way. |
