"Mothers living near the planned site of a massive waste processing plant are threatening a "Greenham Common" style protest to block it.

"The 24-hour plant at Pinkham Way, bordering Barnet, Haringey and Enfield, will process 300,000 tons of rubbish a year from seven boroughs. It is within a half-mile radius of seven schools and 100,000 homes.

"The North London Waste Authority says no incineration will take place, that the enclosed plant will create 60 jobs and 'odour control' equipment will limit smells.

"But Mrs Masson, a professional singer and actress, said she is among an increasing number of parents who are furious over the plans, adding:

"We have a growing army of mothers who are fighting this. These thousands of children have got tiny little lungs, and already struggle to breath with all the pollution coming from the North Circular Road, next door to the site."
