Did the authorities stitch up Big Green Gathering?

I don't know but they say truth will out.

It seems that the disputed traffic order, (the apparent absence of which, was the tipping point that forced BGG to surrender their licenece), had in fact been granted.

How did this come to people's attention? A copy of the road closure notice was found posted near the site and was found in the last 48 hours. It appears the traffic order had in fact been issued almost a week before Mendip DC issued injunction proceedings to stop the event.

George Monbiot tells the story better than I can on the Guardian site.
