On Tuesday, the 3rd of July, members of the York Youth Campaign for Nuclear Disarmanent stopped a meeting of York City Council for ten minutes while a statement was read out to the full council chamber protesting at the expense of civil defence in York. About 10 Y.C.N.D. members centered the public gallery, and without giving any warning to the Council, Anthony Hall, Chairman of York Y.C.N.D., read the protest to the 40 strong York City Council. One Labour Councillor shouted "Hear, hear," and the rest of the council was in utter confusion, with the Lord Mayor calling for order.
