….We will point out that the UK is in no position to object to nuclear proliferation while it insists on retaining its own nuclear ‘capacity’, in breach of its treaty obligations, and propose that instead we should join the non-nuclear majority in working for a nuclear-free world…..

Like others I expect, I’ve already been thinking ahead to Easter – in particular how to use that lovely extra free day on the Monday.

But the thinking didn’t take long, because this year there’s is a must for the calendar: a demonstration at the Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) at Aldermaston, near Reading.

That’s where Britain’s nuclear bombs are made, currently for the Trident system, in which the warheads and their missiles are placed on Trident submarines.

It’s also where the research and development are being done for the proposed successor system to Trident.
