HA hasn't discussed this but my entirely personal view would be that even if it was geared up to do so it shouldn't support this campaign. It's not about not supporting the aim, which I'm sure everyone does, or arguing about if the methods will pay off better than being polite, which they may, but the fact that HA can't risk supporting stuff that might enable our "opponents" in other campaigns to discredit us with.
HA has to take a "self interested" view of what's best for Silbury and Thornborough for instance and not allow the opportunity for the public mind to be clouded with the idea that whatever images that Nine Ladies puts on the screen is what we're about. Our arguments are pretty strong and it would be a shame to have them defeated by smearing us.

We've already agreed we should support "responsible ethical action" and that, in our particular neck of the protest woods, is what we should specialize in, IMHO.
Sorry to discuss HA stuff here, but the Great Divide in protest tactics is relevant to TMA.
