Block the Base at Menwith Hill 19 March 2004

On 19th march we aim to close the base with the use of non-violent blockades. We will stop traffic from entering or leaving the site (except in emergencies) and so disrupt the workings of the base. At the same time, we will hold a demonstration so that those wishing to support the event but not take part in direct action can legally demonstrate.

In doing so we achieve a number of aims. We interrupt the work of the base ­ work which is illegal, immoral and unaccountable. We raise awareness of the workings of the base and its role in espionage, war-fighting and star wars. And we highlight the fact that this country has a number of US bases on its soil, unaccountable to the British people.
