Activists to protest against Trident

Hundreds of peace activists will today try to blockade a nuclear weapons site which handles warheads for submarines.

Organisations including the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament will join the protest at the Atomic Weapons Establishment in Aldermaston, Berkshire.

Demonstrators plan to sit down or lock themselves together in their campaign against the Trident missile system being replaced.

Some Church of England bishops are expected too.
