Campaign Magazine

News broke last week of more proof that US nuclear weapons are coming to Britain. Find out more - and how CND is responded - in this month's magazine. We also have a guest article from the Mayor of Newham, Rokhsana Fiaz, about why opposing the arms fair taking place in the borough this month is personal for so many residents.

Each August we mark the anniversary of the nuclear bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki - a reminder to the world of why we must scrap nuclear weapons. In this month's magazine, read about one CND staff member's trip to the Japanese city of Hiroshima and how this has had an impact on his campaigning. We also report back from the most recent NATO summit  - highlighting the nuclear threat of the alliance.

The government is intent on cracking down on our right to protest. In this month’s magazine we explain more on why we must resist a dangerous new law which is a risk to democracy. The magazine also features an article on how CND is attending an upcoming UN conference, in order to hold the British government to account over its nuclear arsenal.

The world is a dangerous place, and the British government is contributing to the nuclear risk. They are allowing US nuclear weapons back to this country, spending more money on weapons and war, and supporting the expansion of NATO. While all the time they are attacking our right to protest! All these issues are explored in our summer edition of Campaign.

The particularly reckless behaviour of nuclear-armed states recently is putting the world at grave risk. This month's magazine looks at the practice of 'nuclear-sharing' and how it increases the threat of nuclear war. We also explain the dangers of Britain sending depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine, along with Challenger 2 tanks.

More money for weapons and war - that is the main conclusion of the government's latest announcement on its 'defence' policy. CND responds to this and other elements of the Integrated Review Refresh in this month's magazine. We also explain why we're joining climate protests later this month - to highlight the link between getting rid of nuclear weapons and saving the planet.

Recent problems with the UK's nuclear weapons system have highlighted once again why it needs to be scrapped. Read all about the latest safety concerns in this month's magazine. We also have a guest article from the National Education Union General Secretary Kevin Courtney on why we should all be protesting on Budget Day, in support of teachers and against weapons. 

20 years on from the biggest protest in UK history - to prevent a war on Iraq - we take stock of the lessons we can learn from the actions of the British anti-war movement at the time. In the midst of it all, we should never forget that half a million people died and millions more suffered. We also look at the perilous security situation of today, and why the Doomsday Clock has been set at its most dangerous time in history. The magazine looks at the reasons behind this assessment.

This month's magazine includes an article assessing where we are with the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons and what developments we can expect in 2023. This year, we are also likely to see more developments in the militarisation of space. Find out more in the magazine.

The world seemed to become an even more dangerous place in 2022, as we witnessed the existential threat of nuclear war shifting from being an abstract fear to an increasing probability. CND was, and remains, a clear voice for peace - read about our actions in making the world a safer place in this annual round-up.
