Colour photograph from Salford CND (Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament) at an Anti-Trident demonstration in 1992. Trident is the UK’s nuclear weapons programme with the stated purpose of a deterrent, according to the Ministry of Defence.

Anti-nuclear and peace activists have continually protested against Trident since its inception.
