Hundreds of protesters have gathered today (Tue) to rally against arms dealers.

They gathered outside the SEC centre in where The Undersea Defense Technology held an armaments conference showcasing new weaponry innovations and technology.

The event saw four sit-in protestors at the doorway of the venue and more than 30 officers and six police horses block the entrance.

Two protestors were seen storming past security at the doors and were later detained.

Police confirmed that two men have been arrested, both for breach of the peace offences and one has been issued a fixed penalty.

The rally was held by the Scottish Against Militarism and Campaign Against Trade and saw the peace protestors laying on the ground in white sheets to represent people who have died at the hands of weapons.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
