More than two dozen people linked arms in the centre of Penzance on
Monday to show solidarity for the blockade of the Faslane Nuclear
Weapons base in Scotland. Organising the event were members of the West
Cornwall branch of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom
who were joined by local politicians – including parliamentary
candidates, Tim Andrewes (Greens) and Cornelius Olivier (Labour), and
members of the public in the campaign to end the Trident nuclear weapon
system.
