It’s morally obscene for Ministers to be using Westminster Abbey to “give thanks” for 50 years of UK’s nuclear weapons
Instead of celebrating WMD, let’s use opportunity of new Defence Secretary to sign UN Nuclear Ban Treaty – me in @HuffPostUK https://t.co/oumzvdtgL8

The MoD faces enormous black holes in the funding of conventional commitments whilst nuclear weapons continue to soak up cash as though it were no object – at the same time they can’t even decommission the old nuclear submarines. Grossly irresponsible.https://t.co/pRm5aiH0iF
