Abstract
I am not a lawyer. My perspective is that of a ‘victim’ of the legal system, one of the thousands of peace campaigners to have passed through the courts after taking non-violent direct action at military installations. I write from my own experience in numerous arrests, trials and imprisonments arising out of actions at or associated with the Greenham Common Airbase, near Newbury, Berkshire.
