Bin the Bomb – Don’t Replace Trident March and Rally
Scotland’s for Peace is organising a march and rally on the theme “Bin the Bomb – don’t replace Trident” in Glasgow on Saturday 24 February 2007. The march will begin at 11.30am and will culminate in an indoor rally at 12.30pm. It is proposed that the rally will end a series of meetings that will take place in Scotland that week as part of a “Bin the Bomb” roadshow. Speakers at the rally will be Cardinal Keith O’Brien, Rev Alan McDonald, Bruce Kent, Jeremy Corbyn, Alex Salmond MP, and representatives from UNISON and TGWU, amongst others.
STUC involvement
The STUC agreed a position on Trident at its 2006 Congress, and the General Council agreed a further statement on Trident in September 2006. Both the Congress Composite and the General Council statement recognise that Britain’s nuclear weapons are weapons of mass destruction, that the STUC is opposed to all nuclear weapons, and calls for wide public and parliamentary debate on all options on replacing Trident.
