This weekend marks the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.
As a CND member and the leader of a political party that has supported complete nuclear disarmament for over 25 years, I believe it is vital we continue to push campaigns to outlaw nuclear weapons further and further up the political agenda.
CND is as relevant now as it was back in 1958. And it remains total madness that the British Government wishes to replace their Trident missile system at a cost of £75 billion-plus over the next 20 years or so.
Just think how we could better spend £75 billion on piblic services - on hospitals, schools, education and so much more.
