"Have the National Trust done a CRB check on this man before they force members of the public with their children to be in his company?
If not why not.?
The NT have got a duty of care to the public!"

One of many issues the NT have to answer for if this is true.
I've e-mailed them for clarification.
Whilst i have no problem with terry and his followers or anyone else for that matter doing their thing this rule shall stand over my dead body.

This is all rather unfair and silly though... Its a wide open space at Avebury no one will be forcing you to stand and listen anyway. I (as a neutral non-religo) have walked round and listened to Terry on a couple of Pagan events and not been affected by anything he said ;) - and it is a 'special event' in the Pagan calendar with more pagans coming from afar needing camping facilities..
As for 'scurrilous' remarks on other websites bought on to TMA thats not on....

Blimey, heavy stuff ...

When did Lammas at Avebury become a political football.

The National Trust hasn’t done a CRB check on this man. However, Swindon College who regularly invite him to teach young people has. Anyone who wishes to view this official document is more than welcome to, by prior arrangement on 01672 539590. Any further unfounded suggestions in this direction will be taken rather more seriously.
