Sunday Times reports Faslane base may 'close' on G8 Demo Day + G8A Int Mtg

17-04-2005 16:46

Sunday times reports many staff may be given the day off. Not that surprising - on most faslane submarine base big blockade days which have happened in the past, many staff are given the day off, essential staff come in early to beat the blockades and some come by boat.

The faslance base 'source' is quoted as saying "We’re used to this sort of thing but the people planning it are not the ordinary peaceful protesters" - maybe they should tell Trident Ploughshares, CND and Scottish CND who are, as usual, planning the blockade!

Article also covers the G8Alternatives international organising meeting that has been going on in Scotland this weekend.
