WATER-skiers opposed to a 10mph limit on Lake Windermere claim a midnight protest on the day it came into force is the start of a round of civil disobedience.
The controversial speed limit on England's largest lake was being enforced from Tuesday.

Members of the Windermere Action Force said they travelled the full length of the lake at speeds of 36mph.
