MPs have voted to renew Britain’s Trident nuclear deterrent by a thumping majority – with Labour split three ways.

The Commons backed replacing the Vanguard submarines that carry Britain’s 225 warheads with four Successors costing £31bn by 472 to 117, with a Government majority of 355.

Tomorrow MPs are deciding whether to renew a redundant, dangerous and expensive nuclear weapons system: Trident. I will be voting to rid our country of weapons of mass destruction, and I need your help to get other MPs to join me.

Trident is not only a threat to our collective global security, it is a colossal waste of public funds. Even the cautious estimates of the House of Commons’ Library puts the cost at a towering £110bn.

If we ditch Trident, the government could invest in what the armed forces themselves believe they need to do their job – like the best possible safety equipment. We could give our NHS the resources needed to cut waiting times, and build new hospitals.  

If we are to scrap Trident, we must guarantee the jobs of those working at in the nuclear industry. There is no just transition away from nukes if we don’t protect people’s livelihoods.

Ditching Trident, and joining the vast majority of countries without nuclear weapons, would be the common sense decision for Parliament to take – and it would be the right thing to do. So please do all you can to pressure your MP to vote for scrapping Trident.

Best wishes,

Caroline Lucas MP
