Walk to Fylingdales
Nuclear War Starts Here
|
From Northern Lights Affinity Group and Members of Yorkshire CND.
We may have been small in number but we presented a strong, clear message on the role of Fylingdales in nuclear war and US missile defence.
On Saturday 23rd an information stall was held in Pickering in North Yorkshire ten miles south of Fylingdales. Signatures were collected and letters signed and sent to the local MP. There were absolutely no difficulties about setting up a table and displaying banners in the main shopping area (there was a very convenient wide footpath). Please note our new banner which is magnificent.
On Sunday a vigil was held at the main entrance to Fylingdales on the main road from 10.30am - 3pm. Campaigners completed the Fylingdales walk from Hole of Horcum to Ellerbeck.
The MOD police kept a low profile apart from when there may have been an opportunity to reach the security fence around the base.
AND it did not rain but was cold.
