The attempts to shoot down a police helicopter with a distress flare having rebounded on them fairly badly, the anti-fracking protestors at Barton Moss have, you will recall, been trying to conceal the identity of the culprit. Since those attempts were made public at BH and James Verdon's site, they have been busy trying to cover up the cover up, deleting all the relevant comments from the thread on which their misdeeds were recorded.
You might have thought that they would now back away from violence, but it seems that others within the camp may have other ideas.
Two people have been arrested at an anti-fracking camp at Barton Moss in Salford.

Ah those loveable rogues, so caring, so thoughtful!
