50 Years in the Peace Movement - 1
October Pat Arrowsmith came
to the meeting before our AGM and gave us
a facinating account of her 50 years in
the Peace Movement, ranging from wrtime
experience, the Aldermaston marches and
more recent events.
Trident Day - 28
November
Members
spent the day between 10am and 4pm
leafleting against Trident renewal, with
its £76 billion price tag. Shoppers took
all our leaflets and many signed the
anti-Trident petition.
Earlier in
the year on Hiroshima Day, 6 August, a
plaque was dedicated in Sumpter Yard next
to a newly planted peace rose. The plaque
reads:
This rose was
planted in memory of the dead of all wars
and in particular those killed by the
nuclear bombs at Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
August 1945
Dedicated
by Jeffrey John, Dean of St Albans,
on behalf of the St Albans Campaign for
Nuclear Disarmament, 6th
August 2009
