Jericho
Pat Arrowsmith
‘…Another survivor of the earliest days is Pat Arrowsmith, who has been to jail 11 times and arrested frequently for her protests. ‘It has been my life,’ she said, awaiting the arrival of the bailiffs at her Hornsey, north London, council flat because of unpaid court costs in one of her many legal battles. ‘I have been arrested more times than most people have had hot dinners.’
She has many memories of the protests. ‘ I got involved as a student at Cambridge as part of the campaign for a world government,’ she said. ‘My novel, Jericho, which was written in prison, is based on a picket at Aldermaston and had some fairly frank love scenes in it.’ Of the anniversary, she had mixed feelings: ‘It’s quite nice to celebrate. I am aware that our main goal has not been achieved but it is possible we may win over Trident replacement.” ~ The Guardian
