Compensation Claim for Manchester Airport power outage

Hi All,
I was travelling back in May when there was the power outage at Manchester airport which stopped a lot of flights departing due to inability of planes to refuel.
I have contacted EasyJet who have twice turned down any claim for compensation. Myself and my little had our flight cancelled, and had to overnight at a local hotel, paid for by me, and we got put on a flight the following day.
They say no compensation due as the circumstances were outside of their control. We had no contact from EasyJet, no communication and no hotel to stay in.
Has anybody else pursued this at all?
Many thanks
:-)
