ACTIVISTS are hoping their demonstration will start a chain reaction of
protest against the toxic nuclear waste which is transported through London.
The Nuclear Trains Action Group was in Lewisham High Street on April 9
handing out leaflets highlighting what it says are the dangers of the
lethal cargo travelling through built-up areas. The trains travel through
Lewisham, transporting highly radioactive waste fuel from nuclear power
stations at Dungeness up to Windscale in Cumbria.
David Leal of Lewisham and Greenwich CND said: "If
anything happened to one of these containers, perhaps a terrorist attack,
then it would be a mini Chernobyl right here in Lewisham. "A full
public safety audit is needed."
