Eco-terrorists

Typical leftist behaviour, all about hate and power to control.

FIFTEEN Greenpeace protesters who stormed a NSW coal-fired power plant and chained themselves to conveyor belts have been arrested.

Police said they expected to lay charges of trespass and malicious damage against the seven men and eight women who entered the Munmorah power plant on the Central Coast about 5am (AEDT) today.

Public order and riot squad officers were among the police called to the plant.

Protest organiser Stephen Campbell described the protest as non-violent action.

"We think we've done very well to get the message out to the political parties and general community that Australia is not pulling its weight ... and and we demonstrated what this country needs to do - close these coal-fired power stations and use cleaner energy," Mr Campbell said.

Plant operators Delta Energy and police said power generation was not affected during the protest.
