Campaigners protested against drilling plans in the North Sea outside a Shell petrol station in south Manchester. The 15 activists from Manchester Greenpeace and Greater Manchester Climate Justice turned heads on Wilmslow Road in Rusholme as they opposed proposals for gas drilling in the Jackdaw field.

“We had a lot of people waving at us and tooting their horns from their cars
