Bristol Protest Against Bombing of Syria Closes City Centre to Cars

Bristol City Centre at Standstill for Syria Protestors

Protesters brought the centre of Bristol to a standstill this evening, as they shouted out against the UK involvement in the bombing of Syria.

The Bristol Stop The War Coalition, organised the protest which was supported by several hundred protesters.

The well supported march started in the city centre at 6pm, leading through to Broadmead, Castle Park and returning up Baldwin Street to the centre again.

The coalition are calling the airstrikes on Syria by America – backed with Theresa May and President Macron – ‘an illegal international act of aggression.’ They fear the actions could cause further conflict by escalating the war.

The group is calling for the end to intervention and calling for a ceasefire.

Protests were held in Bristol, Exeter and London this evening.
