Nuclear cargo ship protested

Protest.

This morning, Greenpeace Sweden activists attempted to block a nuclear waste transport ship. The ship is in Sweden to pickup 4.8 tons of radioactive waste (including 1.2kg of "super weapons grade plutonium) for transport to the UK. (Video here.)

The 30 activists used their small rubber boats to try and block the ship, and two of the activists jumped in the water. Meanwhile, on the Greenpeace UK blog, Joss wonders, "Haven't we got enough already - why is more nuclear waste heading our way?"

I get this error message on the UK blog link:

"You are not authorized to access this page."

Yes, they took the update off their site for some reason...

I'm looking into it.

Talked to the UK webbie. Fixed now.

Thanks - the link works now :)
