Prince William booed and heckled at service to mark 50 years of Royal Navy’s nuclear submarines
|
Telegraph Video Press Association 3 MAY 2019 Protesters shouted “shame on you” at the Duke of Cambridge as he entered Westminster Abbey for a service to mark 50 years of the Royal Navy’s nuclear submarines on Friday.
Activists from the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND), who were across the road from the Abbey booed and chanted, condemning the Duke’s attendance……The protesters, pinned back by a security cordon shouted various chants, including “Down with Trident” and “Down with War”, as they arrived and later left the building. CND said it was “horrified” at the service, with general secretary Kate Hudson adding that it was “morally repugnant”. She said: “This sends out a terrible message to the world about our country. It says that here in Britain we celebrate weapons, in a place of worship, that can kill millions of people.”…… https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/05/03/prince-william-booed-heckled-nuclear-deterrent-service/ |
