Part of the Trident: we don't buy it tour blog

Arctic Sunrise by Tower Bridge

We're all aflurry onboard the Sunrise today, setting up for a musical event with a difference tomorrow evening (Thursday). At 6.30pm tomorrow, the Sense of Sound choir will be onboard, performing a new musical piece composed by Damon Albarn (he of Gorillaz and Blur fame). The piece is called Five Minutes to Midnight, and the performance will represent a peaceful demonstration against renewing Trident and against Britain possessing nuclear weapons. It will be directed by Hannah Eidinow with visuals designed by Robert del Naja of Massive Attack, and contributions from Brian Eno.

We'll be webcasting the whole thing live from our berth on the Thames - you can catch it (live or over the following 24 hours) on our website tomorrow at 6.30.

And, again, please write to your MP and tell them you don't support the government's plans to replace the UK's nuclear weapons system. There's a week to go before the parliamentary vote and everybody can help add their voices to the campaign. Thank you (again)!
