'No to Quadrllla Fracking Poster' M. Tootill, de North West Tree Services, a dû faire face à 26 accusations pour opposition publicitaire à la fracking. Il estime que c’est son « obligation morale » de poursuivre la bataille contre la société de forage Cuadrilla, qui veut fracturer hydrauliquement le schiste de Bowland à Little Plumpton & Roseacre. Des panneaux anti-fracturation ont été érigés par John Tootill le A583 entre Blackpool et Kirkham.

Fracking company Cuadrilla Resources’ plans in Lancashire have been held back by enormous community opposition but this decision has now been overturned for the Preston New Road site by central government (a decision on the Roseacre Wood site has been deferred), in an attempt to bypass any community involvement. Cuadrilla have now started work on constructing the site but the local communities are standing their ground. There is a daily rolling blockade outside the site and resistance is spreading to support sites with a demo planned outside the primary construction contractor (AE Yates) yard in Bolton. The plans call for drilling and hydraulically fracturing 4 horizontal wells at the Preston New Road over a 2 year period, requiring around 20, 000 truck movements and produce millions of gallons of toxic and radioactive liquid and solid waste. The impact of just this site will be wide-spread, with waste likely to be trucked and dumped in Leeds, Middlesborough or Stoke-on-Trent and frac sand (which causes lung disease silicosis and lung cancer) being trucked from Cheshire or Norfolk.
