    “The factories targeted were #BAESystems in Samlesbury, near Preston, #Leonardo in Edinburgh and #Rafael in Newcastle. Groups from across the UK joined, travelling hours at a time to support the blockades”

  2. I'm feeling a bit conflicted.
    My granddaughter who is 16 has been accepted into the British Army.
    She's one of my daughter's children so we've not seen her for a few years.

    On the one hand I'm pleased that she's found her way in life - and that she's going to be away from the dreadful influence of her father.
    Equally, I lean towards pacifism and I'm against militarism. I abhor the idea of child soldiers - which she will be later this year.

    As the world drifts blindly into World War Three I really don't know what to think.
