CUT TRIDENT...

We are in the deepest recession since World War II and facing some tough choices. Our essential public services are all being lined up for cuts, along with crucial programmes to secure clean, safe energy to power our homes and businesses.

But the easiest cut of all – cutting out plans to build new nuclear weapons – is being ignored by our government.

...SAVE MONEY

Cutting new nuclear weapons would save £97 billion – that’s over half our national deficit.

...CREATE A SAFER, GREENER FUTURE

More and more people, including senior members of the military, are turning against the idea of wasting cash on new nuclear weapons.

Nuclear weapons are simply irrelevant to tackling the challenges we face today. Spending billions on bombs capable of flattening continents can’t deter suicide bombers, deal with cyber-terrorism or stop climate change. They are also a huge waste of precious resources. They cost a fortune to build, and it costs us over £2bn every year to keep them cruising pointlessly around our oceans.
