Trident Ploughshares Aldermaston Big Blockade Oct. 27 2008

Participants blockade the Atomic Weapons Establishment Main Gate. It is possible to blockade using simply, one or several people sitting or lying down on a road. For several people, the hands and feet of participants can be weaved together to create a stronger bond. Superglue can also be used to hold participants' hands together, thus preventing removal from the site for a longer period of time. Some people may choose to say that their hands are glued together when in reality they are not.

Here a participant waits as fellow blockaders are taken apart and removed from the road.
