2000
A YEAR IN THE LIFE of the
CAMPAIGN FOR THE ACCOUNTABILITY OF AMERICAN BASES
(CAAB)
Produced by: Anni and Lindis
E-mail: caab.lindis_anni@virgin.net
The year 2000 has been extremely busy as the issue of the American
National Missile Defense (NMD) System gradually became more public.
The Claim that was issued in the High Court in October 1999 was
significant in that it helped to raise the profile of NMD at Menwith Hill
and later to highlight the crucial role ofFylingdales (later added to the
Claim). We struggled to get anyone interested to begin with during 1997-
9. Richard Norton Taylor's article in the Guardian (December 1999), the
inclusion of an item on NMD on Channel 4 News and a BBC Look North
programme at the end of 1999 were initiatives instigated by CAAB which
helped to put the issue on the local, national and international agenda.
Later Yorkshire and National CND also decided to campaign on NMD.
The Diary of what we have done over the year 2000 gives a taste of the
work of CAAB. We have frequently been contacted by the media, given
interviews, written letters and emailed the world for help with the Claim
(military analysts, scientists, etc) and shared information on Menwith Hill,
Fylingdales/NMD in particular and American bases in general. The aims
and objectives of CAAB are to bring public scrutiny, accountability and
public awareness to the role and functions of American bases. The tools of
the Internet and email have been invaluable (many thanks to Dave Webb -
CAAB's webmaster).
The legal action in the High Court involving MHS and Fylingdales has
been extremely time consuming and expensive. We were so grateful for
the immediate financial support we received which enabled us to continue
with the Claim; also for the continuing help we are given. Despite
withdrawing the Claim in September principally because of the decision
by President Clinton not to deploy NMD but to leave it to the next
President, we have learnt a lot.
We have gradually pieced together NMD, the Space Based Infra Red
System (SBIRS) and what is proposed concerning the roles of MHS and
Fylingdales. We have learnt how it adversely affects us locally, nationally
and internationally. We have also gained a great deal of knowledge about
the complicated legal issues involved. The legal team are still 'on board'
and we are waiting in the wings for another action if/when the UK
government is foolish enough to give formal permission to the US to use
MHS and Fylingdales for the NMD system.
Over the year we have continued our long struggle to bring the Ministry of
Defence Police (MDP) on American bases to account concerning abuse of
power and specifically the manipulation of the military land byelaws by
the MDP. This law is the first line of legal protection round bases. The
MDP have continued a pattern of abuse that has been going on for 20 years.
We have been arrested many times under the byelaws at both Menwith
Hill and Fylingdales during the year. Despite this the MDP have done all
in their power to prevent any case coming to court; so denying a legal
challenge to unsafe law. We are in the process of a legal action concerning
a challenge to the byelaws at Fylingdales and are in discussion with
lawyers concerning Menwith Hill byelaws. We have been informed that
there will be 'no further action' concerning any of our byelaws arrests and
'reporting with a view to prosecution' at MHS and Fylingdales. The MDP
and CPS are continuing a pattern which they have adopted over 20 years.
Even though we have fully agreed that we are in breach of the byelaws
when arrested the MDP have frequently arrested us for any offence rather
than using the byelaws; for example - theft of byelaws signs, obstruction
of the highway or police officers, breach of the peace. Official Secrets Act
etc. It is a long story of institutionalised manipulation of the law by the
MDP ably supported by the CPS in general and David Tucker (CPS) in
particular. David Tucker informs us that it is 'not in the public interest' to
pursue a prosecution under the byelaws. It is very much in the public
interest to bring those enforcing unsafe law to account and that is what
CAAB is determined to do.
On the other hand the American security 'police' on bases such as JAC
Molesworth, USAF Croughton, USAF Barford St John for example
have stopped assaulting Lindis and now stand back to await the arrival of
the MDP. This is the result of a long and painful struggle between 1993-6
when the Americans acted very violently; blindfolding, handcuffing and
detaming protestors unlawfully in their Law and Enforcement Centers.
We have been very busy in the civil and criminal courts. Lindis has
brought cases but also has had spurious cases brought against her by the
CPS. We have once again tested the jurisdiction of the MDP and we have
a case pending which challenges the legality of some MDP officers who
may not have attested under the Ministry of Defence Police Act 1987. We
have been in contact with Martin Bell MP who is also interested in
bringing the MDP to account. He refers to them as the 'secret' police
force. There is to be a Defence Select Committee investigation into the
MDP in Spring 2001. We will be submitting evidence to the Committee.
CAAB has continued to ask Parliamentary questions through Norman
Baker MP. We have been in contact with David Bowe MEP, John
Prescott, Phil Willis, Laurie Quinn and Harold Best MP. We have also
made contact with Lord Avebury and Shirley Williams during the year.
Monitoring the Planning offices at Harrogate and Heirnsley is done
regularly by Anni. It was through this work that we first discovered that
there was to be a new role for MHS namely the European Relay Ground
Station for the Americans which is crucial to the NMD and SBIRS
programmes. Monitoring the planning offices is vital to alert us all to the
next stage of NMD which to a certain extent has gone off the world
agenda after President Clinton's decision in September.
We have given several interviews to the media concerning the issues of the
ECHELON system and civil liberties at MHS; in particular to journalists
from abroad who seem to have only just woken up to this subject. We
continue to monitor the investigation by the European Parliament into the
ECHELON system.
With the support of Yorkshire CND we have organised two
demonstrations at Menwith Hill this year. The demonstration in March
was the largest for many years and supported by Mark Thomas and
Danbert ofChumbawumba. The annual 4 July gathering linked into a
demonstration at Fylingdales organised by National CND (also supported
by CAAB and Yorkshire CND). Chris Dean and Paul Wood of CAAB
produced a wonderful hand scribed document - A "Declaration of
Independence against American Militarisation" which was based on the
original American Declaration. In October in solidarity with world wide
actions called for by the Global Network Against Nuclear Power and
Weapons in Space CAAB organised another demonstration at MHS. We
have also supported demonstrations of other groups specifically at USAF
Lakenheath, NSA Feltwell and USAF Croughton.
The next year is vital if we are to stop the progress of the NMD/TMD
system. As George Lewis of the Union of Concerned Scientists said in his
Statement which was submitted for the Claim in the High Court "SBIRS
is the clock that starts the NMD system"......... SBIRS is on our doorstep
at MHS. NMD cannot operate without the use ofFylingdales.
In March this year GeoffHoon (Secretary of State for Defence) said
... .."the history of close friendship with the United States is that we are
sympathetic to such requests [use of UK bases for NMD)." Kevin Bacon
a Pentagon spokesman said of Britain (Observer article 12 November
2000) "It's too early to predict a problem there. I wouldn't anticipate a
problem there".
CAAB will ensure that there is going to be a huge 'problem there' and will
be doing everything to make sure that Menwith Hill and Fylingdales are
unable to be used for this most dangerous and crazy system. CAAB has
always encouraged and called for actions to be taken at all US bases in
this country and urge people to do whatever they can to oppose NMD and
what the Americans are doing here and propose to do here. This is what
we once again request..........next year is going to be vital.
