FACEBOOK SILENCES ACIVISTS - Huddersfield St. Luke's Hospital site

FACEBOOK SILENCES ACIVISTS - Huddersfield St. Luke's Hospital site
facebook have taken down photos showing asbestos at the abandoned St. Lukes hospital site in Crosland Moor, Huddersfield.
The photos were taken on the 19th April and clearly show that contrary to UK building law, large quantities of asbestos were still present at the site.
The company which failed to remove the asbestos have objected to exposure of their hazardous practices.
A lot of panicked activity was noticed on the site on the day The Examiner contacted the building company, who denied that asbestos was present.
Even if the construction company have removed the asbestos since the photos were taken they should still admit to having failed in the matter until attention was drawn to it by activists.
There needs to be a public inquiry into how this happened and a reassessment of current safety on the site.
Contrary to helping make this public, facebook have complied with the company's complaint and removed the "St Lukes Asbestos Risk" page.
I have been offered no chance to defend myself against the allegation that I have posted abusive material.
Meanwhile, Mark Fisher faces legal action from their solicitors. They claim defamation.
Please help by saving these photos to your computer and re-posting them as widely as possible.
Activists cannot be bullied into backing out of speaking the truth.
Please spread the word as to how companies are ordering facebook to silencing social comment. I ask that you do this not only for the sake of a freer web but also in memory of RIP Andrew Kelley - Spiney who showed me the asbestos there.

Still Laughing at "Asbestos UK"

Hilarious thread (other than the fact that half of Huddersfield are going to die) from the facebook group "Asbestos UK":

In this video we can see piles of material with "danger - asbestos" signs placed on the ground and amongst the rubble. no asbestos warning signs where placed around this site - only "danger - demolition" signs, and the site was not secured - only a thin wire fence surrounded it, and a wall which is broken down in places, allowing children to easily climb into the site. Also, we can see that children are playing around the area where the material was put. We've been watching the site for weeks prior to the demolition, and we saw these piles of material being created. Nothing was removed from the site during this time. I'm sure the local residents will back up this account. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10202636029595265&stream_ref=10Like · Mark Fisher The piles of material with the "danger - asbestos" signs on where unmoved when the demolition commenced, and the site was still unsecured. After we made the first post, all work on the site suddenly stopped, except for 3 JCB's who appeared to be piling rubble over the piles of material. Prior to this, workers where seen in and amongst the material without breath masks. Also, there was no sign of any material being removed prior to the commencement of the demolition.9 hrs · LikeMartin Cozens I could stick a sign saying toilet on my kitchen door does not mean its the toilet.

What are you doing walking round an active demo site? - that's called trespass. 
If you think it's asbestos why have you got no ppe on? - that's called stupid. 
If it was asbestos, don't you think the HSE would be all over it?

Most people do day trips to the zoo etc... If you come across suspect materials please leave it to the professionals who have years of experience dealing with asbestos.
Threatening to take people's name for an inquest is just absurd mate and makes you look really silly.
If you are truly alarmed by an asbestos warning label on mmmf just report to the HSE and let them deal with it.
