So, after hanging around there for nearly two years, causing loads of damage and leaving a heck of a mess behind, protestors gained nothing because the company has decided on the basis of a seismic survey that it's not a commercial proposition to even test drill there never mind frack.

So now they've got to pick up the bill for restoring the site to its original condition even though they never did anything there. All those protestors should be footing the bill, not the company.
