PEACE activists marched through London on Saturday to demand immediate peace talks a year into the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The Stop the War and Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament national demonstration mobilised about 4,000 demonstrators who marched from the BBC headquarters at Portland Place to a rally in Trafalgar Square declaring: No to the Russian invasion, no to Nato and no to nuclear war.
