15 April 2004: for immediate use
The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament together with the Stop the War Coalition
and the Muslim Association of Britain are calling for a mass protest outside
Downing Street on Saturday 17th April. CND urges everyone to attend this
emergency protest.
Kate Hudson, Chair of CND said
“The illegal war against Iraq and continued occupation is leading
to increased death and an escalation of violence. This will not end until
there is an immediate cessation of hostilities. CND calls for the immediate
withdrawal of troops and for peaceful resolution of the conflict, if necessary
with support from the United Nations.”
