CROWDS opposed to the visit of US president George Bush to Britain will be hosting their own reception in Bury tomorrow.

Members of the Stop the War coalition plan a march through Bury town centre to voice their opposition to American policies in Iraq.

The group, who want Western troops to withdraw from the country, will assemble outside Bury Town Hall at 4.30pm.

A demonstration through Kay Gardens towards Bury Market will take place before members prepare to join national protests in London on Thursday.
