FUTURE FUNDING OF TRIDENT NUCLEAR PROGRAMME

Early day motion 223, tabled 7 July 2014 by George Galloway (Respect). Signed by 11 members.

That this House does not believe that the British public would approve of spending £100 billion on renewing Trident while welfare and health provision is being slashed; notes that the Ukrainian government is using crowdfunding to pay for its border drone system; and urges the Government to use a similar method to finance the nuclear programme so that only those who believe it necessary or desirable would pay for it.

Signatures by party: Labour 8, Independent 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Respect 1.
