Faslane Peace Camp

[4] In 1999, a caravan which had been previously used by activists was put on display in an exhibition at the Glasgow Museum of Transport, which also included a four minute film about the camp.

[7] In 2021, the camp resurfaced in the media through its portrayal in the British police television serial Vigil, centered around an investigation of a death of a sailor on a fictional nuclear submarine.

Though the BBC intended to film on location, the occupants of the camp felt that the serial's script was inaccurate and misleading and refused.

Such annual events aim to keep the base closed for as long as possible by preventing its staff from arriving for work, and usually involve large numbers of protesters being arrested.

[14] On 7 January 2007, a group of around 40 world-renowned academics including Sir Richard Jolly and 25 students from Oxford, Cambridge, Sussex and Edinburgh held a seminar discussing the replacement of the trident missiles at the base.

Protesters subsequently managed to stage the most successful blockade of the campaign (apart from a negotiated three-day blockage over Christmas) so far closing the North Gate for six hours.

The majority of these arrests were for breach of the peace, with 22 prosecutions being made; the vast majority of arrested protesters were released, receiving a letter from the Procurator Fiscal's office explaining that although "evidence is sufficient to justify my bringing you before the Court on this criminal charge", the Procurator Fiscal has "decided not to take such proceedings".
