SCND Annual Conference Saturday 7 November 2015 in St Columba’s by the Castle Church, 14 Johnston Te

Scotland opposes Trident, and the Scottish First Minister has signed up to support a global ban on nuclear weapons. Unfortunately she doesn’t have the powers to enable Scotland to join the 121 countries who have signed the Humanitarian Pledge to enter negotiations to fill the legal gap needed to prohibit and eliminate nuclear weapons. Scottish people can still get involved, and work here to add all nuclear bombs to the list of outlawed weapons, like chemical and biological warfare. Australian Thomas Nash has experience and expertise (he was instrumental in the land mine and cluster bombs ban) for the task. On Saturday, he’ll be in Scotland offering insights and opportunities to be part of the campaign to abolish nuclear weapons at this year’s Scottish CND Annual Conference. He will be joined there by Scottish MSP and anti-Trident campaigner Brendan O Hara. This will be a chance to get answers to questions and no doubt collect relevant information. Long-standing CNDers and newbies are all needed to scrap Trident and ban all nukes. SCND Annual Conference Saturday 7 November 2015 in St Columba’s by the Castle Church, 14 Johnston Terrace, Edinburgh, EH1 2PW. Registration from 10.30 am. Meeting starts 11 am. Close 4 pm.
