Watterson A (2015) Lancashire fracking refusals may be no red light to the industry - here's why. The Conversation. 30.06.2015.

Abstract
First paragraph: Big news from Lancashire in north England: the county council has rejected two planning applications to develop shale gas sites in recent days, the first in four years. Lancashire councillors¡¯ decisions to reject planning applications by Cuadrilla at Roseacre Wood (June 25) and Little Plumpton (June 29) against the conditional approval of planning officers is a major blow for the industry. For reasons I will outline, though, it may not yet to lead to a national defeat.
