Campaign Magazine

Labour’s first budget in almost 15 years was a boon for the Ministry of Defence, exposing ruthless spending priorities where billions of pounds are allocated for war while children go hungry and pensioners go cold. Read this month's edition of CND's magazine for our analysis. We also look at an often overlooked element of the conflict raging in the Middle East, as states in the region prepare to  gather to discuss (the lack of) progress on a weapons of mass destruction free zone. Find out more in the magazine.

The Ministry of Defence wants to build a radar in Pembrokeshire, Wales, as part of its plan to militarise space. In this month's magazine, we cover why CND is against this development. Read on as well for a farewell piece from our General Secretary Kate Hudson, who is retiring at the end of this month and will certainly be missed by so many.

In September CND will attend Labour’s first conference as a party of government since 2009. Unfortunately, when it comes to our issues, there doesn't seem to be much improvement over the last government. Find out more in this month's magazine about what CND expects from the event. We also assess the latest in the ongoing war in Ukraine and the ever-present threat of the conflict turning nuclear.

The upcoming Presidential election in the United States now seems a lot closer since Vice-President Kamala Harris entered the race. But will the result have any bearing on the US' nuclear policies? Read more on the topic in this edition of Campaign magazine. We also cover the ongoing 'Spycops' Inquiry, where CND has given evidence on the undercover police who infiltrated our organisation. 

Following last week's election the Tories are gone. But what next for CND's campaigns? Read our analysis of the General Election result in this edition of Campaign magazine. There has also been an election in France, the European Union's only nuclear-armed state. We look into talk of developing an 'Eurobomb' - what would this mean? And why should we oppose it?

With an election upcoming and new government likely, it’s a crucial time to be highlighting CND’s campaigns. From Britain’s new nuclear weapons system, to rising military spending, to the war in Gaza, and the expansion of nuclear power production – these are all issues that need to be scrutinised, and feature in the magazine.

As the risk of wider war in the Middle East escalates, and our government’s support for the Israeli state’s onslaught on the Palestinians continues, CND examines Britain’s long-running role in the region in this month's magazine. It's certainly a dangerous time at the moment, and US nuclear weapons returning to Britain won't make us any safer. This month's magazine also looks at how you can get involved in the campaign to stop this from happening.

The government has just published a Defence Command Paper on the future of Britain's nuclear weapons system. But it's nothing more than a cynical PR exercise with no real substance - find out more in this month's magazine. We also have an article on the similarities between how anti-nuclear protestors were treated in the 1980s and how anti-war protestors are treated today. Read on for the analysis, plus an update on how new CND groups are being formed across the country.

We have a once in a decade chance to challenge a secret nuclear agreement with the United States. The little known Mutual Defence Agreement is a hugely important treaty that not many people know about. Find out more in this month's magazine. And as the protests for a ceasefire in Gaza continue, we have a guest article from the Director of the Palestine Solidarity Campaign on the urgent need for us all to be demonstrating on the streets.

The attack on Yemen is a dangerous escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. This is the most dangerous time for more than two decades in the region and it raises the spectre of nuclear weapons use. Read our assessment of the nuclear risk in this month's Campaign magazine. And back here in the UK, the government is intent on pushing nuclear power. But as we argue in the magazine, nuclear is not the answer to the climate or energy crisis.
