This afternoon five peace activists from nonviolent direct action group Trident Ploughshares walked unchallenged straight into Faslane naval base in Scotland , the home of Britain ’s nuclear-armed Trident submarines, making a mockery of security for Britain ’s “strategic nuclear deterrent.” The five are currently still inside the base.
The activists, one man and four women, released the following statement:
“We invite others to follow us through this gate to restore humanitarian law.”
