PROTESTERS blocked road access to the Lakenheath air base in Suffolk with their own bodies over the Easter weekend.

Two were arrested for refusing to leave the road, another seven for wearing tabards supportive of Palestine Action by police upholding a ban already ruled unlawful by the High Court.

The Lakenheath Alliance for Peace, which concluded a six-day, 24-7 vigil outside the RAF base today, draws attention to the ongoing use of British air bases by US warplanes bombing Iran. Observers at the camp watched aircraft, including US A-10 ground attack planes, taking flight.
