SUMMARY:Shut down US bases! Kick out Trump’s spy station!
DESCRIPTION:With the campaign to shut down US bases growing\, we’re putting the spotlight on RAF Menwith Hill\, near Harrogate\, in Yorkshire. Menwith Hill is the largest US overseas spy base in the world\, capable of monitoring communications globally. The base is also part of the US’s National Missile Defence system. The system is made up of a global network of bases\, designed to enable the US to use its nuclear weapons pre-emptively without fear of retaliation. \n\n\n\nJoin CND\, Yorkshire CND and the Menwith Hill Accountability Campaign for this day of action on Saturday\, 24 October when we’ll be saying no to Missile Defence\, stop the new nuclear arms race and close down Menwith Hill! \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe day will include a public meeting in Harrogate from 12 noon to 2pm. After a break\, transport will take everyone to Menwith Hill for a protest at 3pm and return you back to Harrogate at 4pm. \n\n\n\nPlease note that it is essential that you register in advance\, as we need to book transport to and from the base.

SUMMARY:Stop The War Coalition: International Youth Strike Against War
DESCRIPTION:On Friday 20 November\, we will join students and young people from across Europe and beyond in striking\, protesting\, holding assemblies and rallies to say no to war and militarism. \n\n\n\nFor nearly 3 years\, our government has facilitated Israel’s genocide in Gaza. It has supported Trump’s war on Iran. It has fuelled the war in Ukraine. And it has launched a drive to mass rearmament. The new Defence Universities Alliance (UK) is turning cash-strapped universities and colleges into hubs for the military-industrial complex. \n\n\n\nIf you’re a student and want to get involved\, get in touch and come along to the online organising meeting on 8 September.  \n\n\n\nWe demand: \n\n\n\n\nAn end to the Defence Universities Alliance\n\n\n\nAn end to conscription by stealth\n\n\n\nAnd end to complicity with Israel’s genocide and repression against students

SUMMARY:AN IDEA WHOSE TIME MUST COME
DESCRIPTION:50 years after the Lucas Plan\, workers\, activists\, students & academics unite in Manchester\, 21 Nov 2026\, for socially useful production now \n\n\n\n50 years ago\, workers at the Lucas Aerospace arms company launched their pioneering Alternative Workers Plan. Faced with threats to their jobs\, workers at Lucas Aerospace responded with a visionary\, positive plan that challenged economic orthodoxy. \n\n\n\nThey proposed 150 detailed ideas for socially useful products the company could make\, such as heat pumps\, wind turbines and kidney machines\, instead of fighter jet parts. \n\n\n\nThe Lucas Plan became famous worldwide\, sparking other groups of workers to propose their own plans. In Italy today\, workers occupying the former GKN auto plant are putting those ideas into practice\, making cargo bikes and solar panels. \n\n\n\nSOCIALLY USEFUL PRODUCTION NOW! \n\n\n\nBrian Salisbury and Phil Asquith\, the surviving active members of the Lucas workers’ Combine say: \n\n\n\n“We’re inviting you to join us in Manchester\, not just to celebrate this anniversary\, but to help us build a new movement for socially useful production. That means policies and products that overcome the problems of inequality\, poverty\, environmental destruction and conflict created by the last 50 years of neoliberalism. \n\n\n\nThe crises afflicting the world demand a response from all of us\, but mainstream politics and the market economy are completely failing to deal with them. So just as in the 1970s\, it’s time for ordinary people to take charge. We want to work with social movements and communities to develop a new alternative plan for Britain’s future\, for our children and grandchildren.” \n\n\n\nHear Lucas Aerospace Shop Stewards and connect with new generations of workers\, activists and communities to plan the economic and social transformation we need. \n\n\n\n\nClimate Jobs Not Bombs!\n\n\n\nFor a just and green transition\n\n\n\nHuman-centred technology\, not AI-driven automation and deskilling\n\n\n\n\nFor more information contact info@breakingtheframe.org.uk \n\n\n\nWatch this space for news of the screening of the award-winning documentary\, THE PLAN\, and a performance of Banner Theatre’s new play about the Lucas Plan in the week before the conference.
