Hmmm, I know many of those taking part in the Balcombe demonstrations and, do you know, not one of them is being paid for taking part? They are all amateurs and local people. In fact, some of them are losing money by taking unpaid leave from their employment to be at Balcombe.

So, John, please could you contact The Daily Telegraph and ask them to supply the names of the firms/organisations/individuals that are paying these "professional activists" so that I can pass the information to may friends who are participating in the protest?
