Just wanted to point you to Matt Bolton’s thoughtful blogpost about his experience at Kingsnorth climate camp last weekend; a brilliantly written first-hand account from a self-confessed “ex-cynic”:
this was no finger-wagging lecture or communal tut – this was real. The attempt to shut down this Kent coal-fired power station was true direct action, not the shadowplay of gestures springing from disapproval or one-upmanship.
It was action aimed straight at the heart of the problem, action with drive and focus and unity of purpose; action that refused to be splintered into a weak shower of individual harangues.”
