Salmond joins Trident protesters
First Minister Alex Salmond has joined hundreds of marchers in calling for the Trident nuclear programme to be scrapped.
Police estimated about 1,000 people gathered in Edinburgh for the Cut Trident Not Jobs march organised by anti-nuclear campaigners.
Mr Salmond, joined by trade union and Church of Scotland representatives, appealed to the UK Government to drop multi-billion pound plans to replace the Trident nuclear submarine system currently based at Faslane on the Clyde.
