The British protest against militarization A march was held in central London against the increase in military spending by the British government. About 2,000 people opposed the reduction of social programs for the accelerated accumulation of the country's military potential. The participants in the march, which marched from Victoria Embankment to the Prime Minister's residence in Downing Street, demanded a cut in military spending and the allocation of funds for health services, affordable housing and education. Among the slogans were: "Cut military spending, not the National Insurance" and "We need more nurses than nuclear warheads." The action was organized by the trade union Unison, anti-war activists and supporters of nuclear disarmament. Students, teachers and representatives of public organizations participated in the march. London has become the latest European city where citizens have opposed cuts in social spending in favor of militarization.
