Description

Campaigners against the M11 extension in East London are making a last stand. They have taken over a row of Victorian terraced houses on Claremont Road in Leyton, the only premises left in the way of the controversial road, and it will take police and bailiffs some time to evict them. From the scene Alison Hodgkins reports (protesters heard chanting) and speaks to campaign spokesman Steve Austin and Metropolitan Police Superintendent Walter Poulter.
