This is a video of Mark Thomas' speech at the demonstration in London on 24th February 2007. Mark was one of many distinguished guests who spoke to the thousands of people gathered in Trafalgar Square. As ever Mark made his points in a way that only he can. It is a strange day indeed when a comedian has to stand up (no pun intended!) and say what our Government is to corrupt and spineless to say. Thanks Mark.

Tony Blair took us to war on Iraq to find weapons of mass destruction. There were none. 655,000 Iraqis, over 3000 US soldiers and 130 British soldiers have died in that illegal war. Now Blair wants to spend up to £76 billion on new Trident nuclear weapons for a 'defence' policy based on indiscriminate killing of millions.

Stop the War, CND and BMI organised the national demonstration to say no to these insane policies of death and destruction.
