Record numbers expected at annual Trident protest

An International Disarmament Camp at Coulport in Scotland is expected to have a record number of protestors this year.

The organisers, Trident Ploughshares, have held the camp for the last five years. They say many decided to come to protest the war in Iraq. Actions are planned to disrupt work on the two nuclear submarine bases in the area.

Fifty five people were arrested at last years event where they managed to blockade the gates and put paint on a Trident submarine.
