Speaking at the event Newcastle Stop the War said that; "we say today to Trump, May and Macron as we said to Bush and Blair this is 'Not in our Name'. That’s why we need to build our Stop the War committees here in Newcastle and the north east with the necessity to fight for an anti-war government in Britain."
