Protesters set up two week peace camp against US nukes in Britain at
RAF Lakenheath

With the threat of US nuclear weapons coming to Britain, the
Lakenheath Alliance for Peace is returning to the US-controlled RAF
Lakenheath from Monday 14 to Saturday 26 April, to call on the
British government to refuse the siting of these nuclear weapons in
Britain. Activists will establish a peace camp and 24/7 vigil outside
the main gate, culminating in a blockade of the base on the final day.
The latest protest comes after The Mirror newspaper ran an

revealing a shocking government cover up about the new US nuclear
weapons deployment. Legal letters from CND to the Ministry of Defence
<https://cnduk.org/declassified-mod-document-reveals-us-visiting-forces-across-britain-are-exempt-from-nuclear-safety-rules/?link_id=1&can_id=1c8db45fbf134713b869860f437a1602&source=email-press-release-lakenheath-alliance-for-peace-to-protest-return-of-us-nukes-in-britain-with-peace-camp-at-raf-lakenheath-14-26-april-2025&email_referrer=&email_subject=press-release-protesters-set-up-two-week-peace-camp-against-us-nukes-in-britain-at-raf-lakenheath&&>resulted
in the declassifying of a document exempting US Visiting Forces in
Britain from meeting nuclear safety regulations. This blanket
exemption not only applies to troops stationed at RAF Lakenheath, but
across all US bases in Britain.
This means that Suffolk County Council will never be informed of the
US nuclear bombs arriving at RAF Lakenheath and are therefore under
no obligation to have emergency plans in place in the event of a
nuclear accident at the base.
The new camp will see a ramping up of activities since the last peace
camp in July 2024. Alongside the 24/7 vigil, there will be a
programme of events and actions taking place at the base and in
nearby towns and villages including:
* 17 April, Greenham Womens' Day: Women who protested US nuclear
weapons at RAF Greenham Common in the 1980s will lead the
demonstration at the main gate.
* 21 April, War Crimes & Genocide Day: Solidarity groups and
activists, including a doctor who has volunteered in Gaza, will
gather to protest at RAF Lakenheath's involvement in war crimes being
committed by US/UK/NATO forces and its military support which enables
Israel to commit genocide in Gaza.
* 24 April, International Peace Conference: Members of peace
campaigns from across the world will join local and national speakers
for a one-day conference in Bury St Edmunds. Participants will
challenge US militarism and the drive to never- ending wars, the
build-up of US controlled NATO bases in Europe and how these impact
the environment and people.
* 26 April, Base Blockade: The final day of the camp will see
activists engage in a

reference to the British government's nuclear secrecy.

CND General Secretary Sophie Bolt said:
"Nuclear weapons are the most destructive in the world. They put us
all at risk every day. Whether they are from the dangers of accidents
involving Britain's own nuclear weapons or US ones deployed at RAF
Lakenheath. Far from keeping people safe, all these nuclear weapons
make Britain a target. Yet the government is more concerned about its
special relationship with the US than people's safety.
"The peace camp comes just as we learn that Britain's cover-up of a
US nuclear weapons deployment has been in the works for at least four
years, alongside proof that people living close to any US base in
this country, not just in East Anglia, are at great risk. We
encourage everyone to get involved with this camp, whether its
attending one of the vigils, joining the blockade on the final day,
or taking part in the international peace conference."
Lakenheath Alliance for Peace co-founder Angie Zelter said:
"It is horrifying and shameful that USAF Lakenheath, on British soil
and with the connivance of the UK government is involved in war
crimes and genocide. Pilots from Israel and Saudi Arabia are trained
at Lakenheath and US planes and bombs go out to take part in the
bombings in Gaza and Yemen. We are here to say this is not in our
name and to warn service personnel in the base that they should never
obey illegal orders and refuse to take part in the never ending wars
that are destroying people and planet.
"To mark the Genocide and War Crimes Day, we will hold a symbolic
death march with baby shrouds, Red Rebels, and hanging baby clothes
on the fence of the base. This is to remind everyone of the impact of
these planes on babies and children. It is blood on their hands and
from their planes."
Greenham Common Woman Ginnie Herbet said:
"Women who protested at Greenham in the 1980s are now protesting at
the return of US nukes to Lakenheath. The cruise missiles left
Greenham Common, international law changed and the Common was handed
back to the people. Forty years later and here we are protesting
again as secret decisions are made and US nuclear weapons return to
Lakenheath. Not in our Name!"
