Government plans to allow fracking companies to drill under people’s homes without their permission are set to run into widespread opposition as a major new poll reveals three quarters (74%) of British people are against the move.

Nearly three quarters of Tory (73%) and Lib Dem (70%) potential voters hold the view that energy companies should have to get permission from owners or residents before drilling for gas under their homes or land, a YouGov survey published today reveals. Only 13% of respondents said energy firms should not be required to have this consent.

Don’t want your home fracked? Just say no!

Andrew Pemberton of Lytham, Lancashire is not for shale

Years from now, today may be remembered as the day that the UK stood up and declared, "We are not for shale!"

I’ve spent a lot of time in and around actions here at Greenpeace and elsewhere, but rarely have I felt as excited as I do right now about the potential for a major victory, with the launch of wrongmove.org and the Not For Shale legal block.
