Talk by Jack Cohen-Joppa from Nuclear Resister about Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp given on The Nuclear Hotseat (NH #709).
In 1980 RAF Greenham Common was selected as USAF’s mobile nuclear armed cruise missiles. The following year a women’s peace camp was set up. The missiles were removed in 1991. In 2008 freefall nuclear bombs were removed from RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, leaving the UK from US nuclear weapons. However, it is now proposed to bring the nukes back to RAF Lakenheath.
People, including several of the Greenham Women, are opposing the return with a peace camp at Lakenheath in April 2025.
