World's largest weapons inspection as Blair pushes for new N-Bomb


Hundreds of people from across Britain are this morning marching on the Atomic Weapons Establishment at Aldermaston in Berkshire. They are converging in large groups from all directions - by bus, train, bicycle and on foot - determined to carry out the world's largest ever inspection of a nuclear weapons factory.
