We are here today at your nuclear industry conference to again try to bring a little realism to your deliberations.

LEAFLET NUCLEAR TRAIN STATIONS ON SEPTEMBER 27th

LEAFLET NUCLEAR TRAIN STATIONS ON SEPTEMBER 27th

In July we held a co-ordinated leafletting session at some of the train stations through which trains carrying highly-reactive nuclear fuel rods from nuclear power stations (“nukiller trains”) go. This was moderately successful.

We are calling for a 2nd more extensive such action on September 27th. The aim is to leaflet people in the vicinity of the stations to inform them that such trains go through their local station and the dangers they represent.
