Following the success of two recent mass actions at Hinkley Point nuclear power station in Somerset, the Stop New Nuclear alliance is now planning a third mass action, on the site earmarked for the Hinkley C mega power station.

In March 2012, around 1000 people took part in a 24-hour blockade of the entrance to EDF’s nuclear power station in Somerset. This was one of the largest and longest blockades of a nuclear power plant in the history of the British anti-nuclear movement.

Now the Stop New Nuclear alliance is to return, to highlight the fact that EDF is already trashing fragile land in preparation for construction – even though the company hasn’t got planning permission for the power station and investors are looking less and less interested in putting their money into the project.
