We may have a fragile ceasefire but still need to say loud and clear ‘No More War’
As the suffering in Iran and Lebanon continues, the spotlight is on Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s decision to allow the US to use British bases, including Fairford in Gloucestershire, to launch attacks.
RAF Fairford, from which huge US bombers loaded with 2,000lb bombs have been carrying out twice-daily bombing raids on Iran, is central to the US illegal war. Despite UK government statements, there is no guarantee that these raids have not resulted in war crimes.
See detailed briefing here for more info.
Join us in calling for an end to the war in Iran, and for Starmer to stop Trump’s use of British bases. Given the fragility of the two-week ceasefire, this protest couldn’t be more critical.
Assemble 12 noon at Fairford,
with activities and speeches from 1.30 pm.
Bring banners, placards, food and lots of friends!
Dress for the weather.
