Don't put Britain on the Nuclear Front Line. Day of Action

Event Date: 11th May 2024
Location: Many places

Join the Day of Action on Saturday May 11th!

US nuclear weapons are coming to Britain. They’re putting us all on the nuclear front line.

Opinion polls show that the majority of the public don’t want the weapons coming here: let’s come together to show the government that these bombs are not welcome.

US nuclear weapons coming to Britain would mean we become a further part of the US war machine, making us all a target in any nuclear war. The UK government can stop this from happening. If we show enough public resistance, we can press them to reject these plans and prevent these terrible weapons from making us a target.

CND has called a Day of Action for Saturday 11 May and we’re asking CND groups and supporters toorganise an event or action, wherever you are, across the country. This could be a rally, die-in, public meeting, or anything else you think would make an impact. You may want to arrange an event in your town centre or at a local US military base.

On the day, we’ll be collecting signatures of support for our campaign, from the public, to hand in to 10 Downing Street at a later date (more information to follow).

Action
How can you get involved?

  • Organise a rally, die-in, public meeting, or other action
  • Let us know your plans (email [email protected])
  • Order your materials

Materials
Here are some resources to support your work on this campaign:

  • Order our leaflet explaining why we don’t want Britain on the nuclear front line.
  • You can also order information sheets on how a nuclear strike would affect you
  • We can provide a model press release, a speaker for your meeting, and other support – just ask!
  • Here are some talking points you can use when speaking to your local press outlets

US nuclear weapons were removed from Britain in 2008 following persistent popular protest, led by CND. We stopped these weapons before – will you help us stop them again?
