Anti-war campaigners have set up a "peace camp" behind an arms factory.

The protesters say they will stay in the woods behind EDO MBM Technology's factory in Home Farm Road, Moulsecoomb, Brighton, until Friday.

The camp follows Saturday's city centre protest against the factory, which makes bomb components for fighter jets.

Protesters yesterday held a lunch on a grass verge opposite EDO MBM.

Under the terms of an injunction granted against the Smash EDO campaign last month, protesters are allowed to demonstrate at any time in any numbers but are not allowed to enter an exclusion zone around the factory.

Yesterday they also staged a street theatre production called Carry On Up The Injunction.
