Tomorrow’s demonstration is expected to be Britain’s largest anti-nuclear demonstration in decades. Tens of thousands of people from around the UK will converge on Speakers’ Corner (Hyde Park) at 12 noon. A march will set off from Speakers’ Corner at 1 pm. The march will go through Hyde Park Corner and Piccadilly Circus before ending in Trafalgar Square. A rally, featuring speakers and musical performances, is scheduled to begin in Trafalgar Square at 2:30 pm.
