A YEAR after the start of the war in Ukraine, the No2Nato rally that was held on February 25 was an unqualified success, despite determined efforts to ban it.
Two venues cancelled the booking for the rally as a result of pressure from pro-war advocates. One of those that backed out was Conway Hall, despite its reputation for supporting free speech and progressive causes. They succumbed to what they described as an unprecedented onslaught of intimidation.

We could have sold out the room 10 times over. So despite the unprecedented pro-war propaganda, the opposition to this war is growing.
