Demo over incinerator

Placard-wielding campaigners are to protest outside a Shrewsbury council meeting in a bid to get plans for a £60 million waste incinerator on the edge of the town thrown out.

And at the same time, members of Shrewsbury Friends of the Earth will be lobbying politicians at a meeting at Battlefield – where Veolia wants to build the facility.

Campaigners will be outside the Guildhall for Shrewsbury Town Council's meeting tomorrow at 6pm.

MEP Philip Bradbourn and MP Daniel Kawczynski will be at the Battlefield meeting.
