Hi
Please read the below, and sign if you agree.
This could make a mockery of democracy. Lancashire said no, and this could overrule that decision.
Fracking is extremely short sighted. From what I've read and seen I'm certain that if it goes ahead there will be a long term impact on our environment and health.
Even if it was safe (which I strongly believe it is not), more fossil fuels simply cannot be the long term answer. This short sighted farce is being pushed purely for financial gain of big business, and their stakeholders. It's disgusting.
Please do sign it and forward it on, the numbers really count.
Thanks
Clarkey

Hi there,
Earlier this year, people from across Lancashire worked tirelessly to pressure the local council to say NO to fracking. But now, in an unprecedented move that makes a mockery out of local democracy, Westminster politicians announced that they’ll have the final say.
Greg Clark, who is in charge of local democracy, has called on council leaders to "take power" back from central government in the past. It's going to be really embarrassing for him to ignore his own advice. So let's show him that thousands of us are watching, and that we won't let him get away with backtracking on his own words.

Rebecca, who lives in Lancashire and is part of the group Nanas Against Fracking, summed it up this morning when she told us: "I'm feeling furious about the government's latest blow, but I'm also feeling defiant. If they think we are going away now they are hugely mistaken."
For Rebecca, and everyone who continues to work tirelessly to keep fossil fuel industry at bay, let’s show David Cameron’s government that we’re never giving up.
Please sign the petition to stand with the people of Lancashire:

Please repost on any other forums you all go on, especially north west based ones
I'm not at all a NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard)... This shouldn't happen anywhere, it's just that Lancashire was one of the first targets for it. This will set a precedent

Nanas against fracking!?
Oh hahahahaaaa.
Thats good comedy.
Got a vision of a gang of old dears meeting up to discuss the latest developments while having tea and scones.
One will keep repeating themselves and one will smell strongly of piss.
If it gives us some oil or gas and creates jobs then its got to be good.
Pretty sure there will be no environmental impact that will affect me.
Frack on!

Is it me or when it's in our own backyard it becomes a problem,nturn your central heating and hot water off don't use electric don't ride or drive. Then fracking wouldn't be needed. Im in n no way for fracking or against it and tbh I couldn't be arsed.
And on that note I best turn the heating up

Smudger, it's disappointing if you believe what you have posted
Like I said, it's not just my back yard I have a problem with, it's any investment in fossil fuels, here, anywhere else in the country or abroad
I use electric over gas where possible, and the solar panels I have still make more than I use over the year... It's not perfect yet, as I sell during the day and buy at night / shit days, but overall I'm self sufficient in electricity. I read up on battery tech every week and will purchase home storage in the next few years (I hope) so I'm actually more self sufficient.
I'm trying, and anything to push the government away from investing in and backing fossil fuels where possible is the only answer. I believe you've got kids, and if so the future really matters for you
Anyway, I hope more people sign, and thanks to those who have
