US plans to put new bases in central Europe, and NATO's recent backing for this provocative step, are making a new nuclear arms race more likely. After the successful march and rally on Saturday 3rd at RAF Croughton - a US communications base involved in the MD system, located near Oxford, two further protests are planned: Saturday May 17th: Breaking the Links protest - 1 to 4pm at Menwith Hill, near Harrogate - the largest spy base in the world and part of the MD system.

Sunday May 18th: Three Strikes and You're Out protest - 1pm at RAF Lakenheath - home to 110 US nuclear bombs, and possible home to MD interceptor missiles.
