Several hundred protesters were on hand last Saturday, 9 August, for the unfurling of an enormous pink scarf along the seven miles of road between the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) sites at Aldermaston and Burghfield.

The protest was intended to show the scale of opposition to Trident replacement in the UK and abroad. It took place on the anniversary of the 1945 bombing of Nagasaki.
