Basildon council: Increased Dale Farm tensions worrying
Tony Ball, Basildon council leader, expresses concern over increased Dale Farm tensions:
"We wanted to do everything possible to keep residents updated about the operation and to listen to any concerns and address any final requirements.
"It would appear that we now have no line of communication to the Dale Farm residents.
"We are very concerned that tension has increased and it may now make our job of clearing the site in a safe and orderly manner even more difficult."
