They held him for over an hour and threatened to kill him. He left. I have also just heard that these thugs have denied the domestic and the dairy man access to the homestead and dairy. All Tom and Sues animals are at the house and need to be fed and watered and the cows need milking. What on earth are they supposed to do next? Keep pushing with your MP despite the fact that you think he's an a/h!!! Try to get anything possible published anywhere. The BBC contacted Sue for an interview and asked if she minded if they publish her full name and where she is at this moment. Of course she agreed but when she started giving an account of the events and mentioned the names of the so-called invaders, the BBC reporter said that they didn't want to publish to names of the thugs.

I have just got through and told him the mps Sir Malcolm Rifkind in london and Sir Charles Tannock are observing what is going on and to make sure there is no looting on the farm.
