Why: The rich countries of the world depend on their overwhelming military might to defend and extend the globalisation that allows them to exploit and oppress the poor. Nuclear weapons are the ultimate expression of the militarisation that makes economic globalisation possible.
How: Up to you. We are asking people to respect the non-violence and safety guidelines *on this action* - these are fundamental to some of the groups behind both the initial call and recent successful blockades at Faslane. Within that: blockade, cut in, dance, mourn, swim, use your imagination!
Where: Faslane Naval Base (near Glasgow). Home to all Britain's nuclear (and many non-nuclear) weapons.
When: Monday 4 July (early!)
