THE Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) will hold another national mobilisation against plans to station US nuclear weapons in Britain at RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk, on Saturday.

It will be the fourth protest against the plans for upgrade works at the US-run air base for the storage of the new B61-12 guided nuclear bomb since they were revealed in 2022.

CND general secretary Kate Hudson said: “This demonstration is not just about local concerns; it resonates on a global scale, especially with the upcoming US presidential election.”

Melissa Parke, executive director of Nobel Peace Prize winner the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN), will be among the speakers at the protest along with Green Party peer Jenny Jones.

Ms Parke said: “Real security doesn't lie in nuclear weapons, it lies in getting rid of them and the way to do that is to join the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons which the majority of countries support.”
