Determined Activists Return To Faslane
|
This Saturday, 13th May, anti-nuclear activists will gather again at the gates of Faslane naval base to continue their challenge to the UK’s Trident nuclear weapon system.
They will be present at both the north and the south gate of the base, home to the Trident submarine fleet, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The protest is being jointly organised by Scottish CND and Trident Ploughshares.
A Trident Ploughshares spokesperson said:
" I was in Helensburgh District Court today and heard activist after activist, including MSP Tommy Sheridan, give unequivocal "not-guilty" pleas to various charges. We are not going away. The bosses and the mere message men in the organised crime racket called Trident now know that. So do the courts and the civil police. On Saturday we will have fun and celebrate the love of life. At the same time we will confront this embodiment of hatred, fear and murder."
Activists from French anti-nuclear groups will join the protesters to underline the global reality of nuclear terrorism.
