Dear David Howarth MP,

I am writing on behalf of Cambridge Respect in the hope that you will support the
Early Day Motion 1197 sponsored by Michael Meacher MP and entitled
Replacement of Trident Weapons, which reads:

That this House believes there should be the fullest possible public debate on a decision to replace the Trident nuclear weapons system; notes that a successor to Trident could cost as much as £25 billion, therefore affecting significantly other public spending options; calls on the Government to produce a Green Paper on Trident replacement that considers all possible options, including non-replacement; and further calls on the Government not to conclude any agreements, or to engage in preparations to build a new generation of nuclear weapons, until after this debate and a deciding vote held in Parliament.

We are strong believers that weapons of mass destruction are not helpful or safe in any ones hands and particularly in the control of a prime minister we believe to be guilty of war crimes.

I hope we are in agreement on this issue


Yours Sincerely,


Tom Woodcock
Secretary
Respect – The Unity Coalition
