PEACE campaigners were blocked from carrying out an “inspection” on Saturday at a military base where it is believed the US and British governments plan to install nuclear weapons.
The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) formed a “Citizens’ Weapons Inspection” (CWI) team to attempt to enter RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk.
Lakenheath is only nominally an RAF base. In reality, it is operated by the United States Air Force (USAF).
