Peace News is best known as the official weekly paper of the Peace Pledge Union, first published in 1936. After a few years in the late eighties when it suspended publication, Peace News resumed, and from 1990 to 2004 was co-published as a monthly with War Resister’s International, then also as a quarterly with Nonviolent Action. Peace News was opposed to the Iraq War whilst also condemning Saddam Hussein. From 2005 Peace News resumed monthly publication, as an independent British publication in a tabloid format.
