Ministry of the Interior will set up an "anti-ZAD cell", effective next September. "The zadistes do not even have a fight to fight: the project has been abandoned and yet they remain," whispers Gwënola Franco, mayor of Vigneux-de-Bretagne.

A neighbor adds: "Notre-Dame-des-Landes is a bit like the headquarters of the zadists of France" A year-round, there are about a hundred illegal occupants, but when the sunny days arrive, the numbers double.
