BITTER STAND-OFF Thwaites Brewery taken over by 100 travellers who ‘evict’ staff and ‘turn building into disgusting mess’

AN iconic British brewery was invaded and then occupied by a 100-strong band of travellers who stopped staff from entering.
The drama unfolded when employees turned up yesterday at Thwaites’ plant in Blackburn only to find it occupied by 21 caravans and 25 vehicles.
It is believed they arrived at about 8pm on Saturday, setting up camp after forcing their way in.
The invasion prompted brewery bosses to make a desperate plea to police to rid the family-run business of the trespassers.
They said the site had become a "disgusting mess".
