Trident Ploughshares activists leafleted Plymouth city centre to raise awareness of the dangers, immorality and illegality of the trident nuclear weapons before gathering on the Hoe at 1:00 p.m.
Today a few hundred protesters marched through the centre of Plymouth demanding Trident be scrapped. They represented Trident Ploughshares, CND groups from Plymouth, Penzance and Exeter, Unison, Respect, the Green Party the Raging Grannies from Exmouth, and others. They marched through the crowded city centre with many bystanders showing support. The march then proceeded to Albert gate with a dramatic presentation of polluted Tamar mud and a letter to the Comadore of Devonport dockyard. Protestors heard a speech from Kate Hudson, chair of CND and a long term resident of Devonport. There were bands playing in Devonport park to end the successful event and information stalls available for more detail about the work of the groups.
