Dozens arrested at nuclear demo

More than 30 people were arrested when anti-nuclear protesters blocked entrances at the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) in Berkshire.
Campaigners said hundreds of people gathered at Aldermaston to mark the start of World Disarmament Week.
They are concerned the facilities are used to design and manufacture a new generation of nuclear warheads.
Thames Valley Police said 32 people had been arrested and some roads had been blocked but were cleared later.
AWE provides the warheads for Trident - the submarine-launched missile system that constitutes the UK's nuclear deterrent.
The protest was organised by Trident Ploughshares and supported by Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND), Block the Builders and the Aldermaston Women's Peace Camp group.
Officers from Thames Valley Police, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) and Hampshire Constabulary, including horse mounted officers, were at AWE "to facilitate lawful protest, deal with any individuals who break the law, and ensure the safety of the public".
A spokeswoman for Thames Valley Police said the protest had been peaceful with no violent incidents.
'Peaceful blockade'
Kate Hudson, chairwoman of the CND, said the gates were blocked by protesters "peacefully sitting and lying in the road, some locked together with concrete, glue, climbing clips and chains".
"Today's action at Aldermaston has been a great success," she said.
"We have effectively obstructed work at the site for many hours, closing gates and blocking roads.
"This is the largest blockade of Aldermaston for many years and signals an increased public concern about Britain's weapons of mass destruction.
"At a time of economic crisis, our government is prioritising nuclear bombs over healthcare, job creation and investment in sustainable energy production."

追記:警察が出動の目的として「合法的な抗議活動を容易にする(facilitate)」ことを第一に挙げているのにご注目(本文第6節).遠足しただけで逮捕する東京のイナカ警察とは大違いです.

公的資金注入は徳政令(BLOG BLUES 2008-10-28 19:58)
よしんば、発令しなければ一国の存亡に関わる、 絶体絶命の事態なら。苦渋の決断として、徳政令もあろうが。 かかる事態を招いた者は家財没収、執政家老は切腹である。 武家社会の屋台骨は、一死以て大罪を謝す、武士道の倫理観にあり、 それなくては、武家社会そのものが瓦解するからである。…[続く]
