SIX LANES - YOU MUST BE CHOKING!

A new anti-road campaign has kicked off in Oxford against a six-lane road in the city centre to be paid for by green-belt trasher, Persimmion Homes, and Oxford University. The £1m road will destroy trees and slice through one end of the Grade II listed old railway station, conveniently leaving the area free for 'development'. The station however was squatted on 2nd May and is now being done up (one of the many ideas for it is turning it into a rickshaw rank and bike hire centre!).
