Obstructing the obstruction - it's the only way.

Shame to see so few there, from the earlier reports I had assumed this was a much bigger action but the photos show how little number of people made it.

Why were the numbers so low when this was in the middle of the summer period ?

Why ?

Agree that the numbers were disappointing however they have been in decline for anti EDO actions for some time (there are various reasons for this) so it was not a surprise. What is important is that the people who did attend managed to blockade the police fence and achieved the aim of preventing EDO trading for the day.

I remember my parents marching to Aldermaston regardless of the weather, it was that sort of commitment that resulted in the massive reduction of nuclear weapons in the UK and now we have an arms company in our community where less than 30 people can be bothered to attend an action because it was raining.

"less than 30 people can be bothered"

Looks like at least 50 in the photos. I haven't watched the video.

I see HAMAS executed 3 Palestinians this week. How can this be happening when they are not even in government. Are they working for the Israelis and should we not oppose them? I am really confused and upset

If that´s the first thing you noticed from the killing that is going on then you should be.
