Guardian story

150 Greenpeace volunteers climbed easily over two perimeter wires to occupy Sizewell B, Britain's newest nuclear plant, for more than 12 hours yesterday .

Quote:
'"We knew that the British nuclear industry was technically clapped out and financially bankrupt. Now we know it's also impossibly insecure," said Mr Tindale.'

Now, I'm a paranoid sort of person and reading this article, which says that the police were well aware of them and they were completely open about what they were doing, makes me wonder if Greenpeace were allowed to do this so that British Energy can get some more subsidies from the government to increase their security.
