Police deal with reports of plans to commit mass murder

PRESS RELEASE

Around 15 local people queued outside Llandrindod Police Station today,
Monday 30th June, to report on crimes being committed by the Government
and Ministry of Defence. It took over 3 hours for the complaints to be
heard and logged.

One by one they entered the police station and reported that the UK
nuclear weapons on Trident were too big and powerful to be contained in
space or time, would kill millions of people, trigger a nuclear winter
that would lead to a decade long agricultural collapse, impact horribly
on neutral countries and cause long-lasting pollution and damage to the
environment - a humanitarian crisis of epic proportions that would
affect the whole planet not just those engaged in the exchange of
nuclear weapons. They complained that it was a breach of their peace and
was leading to worry and depression and that it was the job of the
police to investigate the legal status of nuclear weapons and to help
protect their community from these grave breaches of law.

When told that a rural police station could not deal with their reports
and that they would be sent to the Thames Valley Police who had already
instructed them not to deal with the reports but just to log them and
send them on, the reporters of Trident crimes were shocked. They
complained that their local police had a duty to investigate the crimes
themselves and not to pass the responsibility on to a police force that
might be highly politicised.

Different people made different complaints including preparations for
mass murder being illegal, the health and safety implications of nuclear
contamination, the risk of accidents and the cover up of past radiation
accidents …… and each person will be following up to make sure that
the crimes are investigated properly.

“Spending £100 billion on replacing Trident is a catastrophic folly. I’m sure I am one of many who support the those, like Action-AWE, who campaign actively and imaginatively against it”

– Ken Loach

John Hurt

".....the government has pledged to rebuild a new generation of British nuclear weapons at enormous cost and at a time when social services budgets including those for health and education are being drastically cut. Having nuclear weapons doesn't make us safer, it just brings the possibility of nuclear conflict ever closer. We need to protect this planet not put it at even more risk of destruction. We all have a voice so please use yours and join me in supporting ACTION AWE." John Hurt
