London holds ‘Vote Out Trident’ event’

Press TV, London
The message was deadly serious. The UK needs to rethink its position on warfare and weapons.At the heart of this debate was the pledge made by the leaders of the two largest parties to spend tens of billions replacing the UK’s nuclear deterrent system – Trident.
The Trident weapons replacement system has become an incredibly politicized issue with politicians from the major political parties arguing that Britain simply needs this weapon deterrent system. but for those who oppose trident, well their argument is clear: they say politicians are not telling voters the full story
It is not just what replacing Trident says about Britain’s commitment to a world free of nuclear weapons, it’s the massive financial cost.So far the Scottish Nationalist Party alongside the Greens and Plaid Cynmru have pledged to oppose any party that backs Trident, especially in this period of austerity.
