On 2 July Trident Ploughshares activists working with Women in Black (London) joined together in a dignified and silent protest at the illegal and undemocratic decisions being made behind closed Government doors. Entering the lobby of the House of Commons at 2p.m. they stood displaying their t-shirts painted with their messages ‘DISARM NUCLEAR WEAPONS NOW’, ‘SCRAP TRIDENT’ and ‘STOP TRIDENT REPLACEMENT’ whilst waiting to lobby their MPs. The 15 protesters refused to move and were told that slogans on t-shirts constituted a protest and protests were not allowed inside Parliament. They were asked to remove their t-shirts or turn them inside out and refused to do this. They remained for 2 hours meeting with their MPs and making their visual protest in their quiet manner and then joined hands to end their protest and were escorted out of the main entrance.
