Ploughshares on Parade
|
Today, and in defiance of an undemocratic and unreasonable ban imposed by Plymouth City Council, members of Plymouth CND and Plymouth Trident Ploughshares joined in the annual Lord Mayor’s Parade through the streets of Plymouth.
Despite the ban imposed so unfairly upon anti-nuclear debate on this occasion, members followed the route down as far as the Barbican where, our point made and presence firmly established, we decided enough was enough and withdrew from the march itself.
This is now the third year in succession that we have managed to defy official attempts to block our presence and have defied this ban while maintaining polite and civil relations with all concerned.
One member said: "We have defied the ban for three years now, and we will continue to do so. This will now be an annual event for us."
