Trident IS Bananas!

16 banana activists were arrested today for blockading the North Gate of the Faslane Base. Forming 3 affinity groups the bananas used miniature arm locks and d-locks made of foil in their attempt to shut the base down. Assisted by 3 human supporters wearing Banana Support jackets, the banana blocks positioned themselves in front of the gates where they were immediately seized by eager police. Their banners read 'Trident is Bananas', 'Bananas say No Trident' and 'Make Banana Cake not War'.

The police were found to be hiding their grins as were passing traffic, as the supporters, a large French contingent who had just been let out of the police cells after their action the previous day, cheered and shouted 'Libere La Banane'.

The police lifted the bananas, lock-ons included to the side of the road several times before carting them off to be processed in a police car. The supporters are currently ringing Dumbarton and Clydebank police stations to see where the bananas are being taken to and when they will be released. The police are finding it hard to decide which bananas are male and which female and are searching for a translator. The bananas legal support will check to make sure no strip searching goes on as these are peaceful and responsible bananas just trying to say that bananas also desire a nuclear free Scotland.
