WOOLIES AND THE KEPNOCK RESIDENTS ACTION GROUP (KRAG)

Mary Walsh and her group are still fighting the megagiants. Her newsletter is on their facebook page and ends with: "So! – that"s the state of play. All we can do is get our letters of objection in, attend planning meetings and wait while they play their games with our lives, for the rest of our lives." Sounds familiar – good luck Mary.
