'Rick on The Roof' Beaten Up in Hospital
After 27 months protesting on his 'own roof', following dubious court cases that deprived him of his home, Rick was beaten up and "trussed up like a chicken", as he said, before being dragged off the roof by two Welshmen in the employ of others.
The two Irishmen who had 'bought' the property at auction were also arrested at the scene. The Irishmen were questioned on the possible matter of 'attempted murder', but later released while a seach goes on for the two Welshmen. Rick was taken to Cardiff hospital before he appeared in Cardiff Magistrates on Wednesday morning charged with criminal damage. When released on bail, Rick, still suffering from his head injuries, was soon back in hospital following a collapse on the road... Arrested again this morning and out again 3.30pm Thursday........full story later.

About Maurice Kirk
Maurice was born 12th March1945, a war baby, in Taunton, Somerset, West of England, within a final family of four brothers and one sister while mother and father were working 24/7 to run a country veterinary practice. Country pursuits very much dominated his spare time from most sports with his passion still for hunting , shooting and fishing!
Maurice is currently trying to fly to South Africa in his WW2 Piper Cub,registration G-KURK. His other D-Day Cub, G-KERK, is destined, on skis, for a rather taller mountain after his promise to Sir Edmond, six years ago. Meanwhile, the task of obtaining justice in the UK courts, in order to practice veterinary surgery, is proving to be somewhat elusive.Authority has quite another agenda.
