Welcome
Hastings Against
War was formed in February 2003, when local peace campaigners and
anti-war activists came together to oppose the invasion of Iraq.
Its position then, and since, is that the invasion of Iraq was illegal,
immoral and unjustified.
Working locally,
and making links with other national groups, Hastings Against War
has consistently campaigned against the invasion of Iraq. We continue
to highlight conditions in Iraq as well as making links with other
anti-war groups and organisations, and joining with others to oppose
all wars.

Nuclear Power
Station
The government
has publicised a potential list of sites to build new Nuclear Power
Stations, perhaps predictably one of the sites is Dungeness only
18 miles from Hastings. Battles raged in the 80's when Dungeness
B was being built, the Government has changed the rules to avoid
lengthy but basically open public enquiries precisely for these
projects so perhaps it is time for a preemptive strike and start
forming a wide coalition of all groups and people with anti-nuclear,
environmental and climate concerns in the area.
