Protestors from around the country travelled to Trafalgar Square to mark the tenth anniversary of the Afghan war and to call for an immediate withdrawal of British troops.
Organised by the Stop the War Coalition, the protest was attended by high profile speakers including Noam Chomsky, Tony Benn and numerous ex-servicemen and women.
Speaking last week, Adam Johannes, Secretary of the Cardiff Branch of the Coalition, said, “We have consistently argued that the Welsh Assembly should take an anti-war stance. We will specifically be protesting in London because it is the seat of government and it is the Westminster government that has taken the decision that led us into war and has the powers to bring the troops home.”
The conflict is still ongoing.
