Scottish Youth Cnd <ScottishYouth>


There are 150 nuclear bombs at Faslane only 30 miles from Glasgow. Gordon Brown wants to build more, and he wants to keep them in Scotland for the next 50 years.

Scottish Youth CND is working to make Scotland free from nuclear bombs and nuclear power stations. We are part of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND).

On 14 June 2007 the Scottish Parliament voted to oppose Gordon Brown’s plan for new nuclear weapons. But the Parliament in Edinburgh does not have the power to stop this.

Scottish CND has won support from world famous group “James” on their forthcoming Scottish tour – Edinburgh, Corn Exchange, 24th April; Aberdeen, Exhibition Centre, 25th April. http://www.wearejames.com Lorna Waite of Scottish CND says “We will be present at James’ forthcoming gigs with funky t-shirts, peace badges, and a striking visual presence on stage. All monies raised will go towards getting rid of Trident from Scotland.’’ Frontman Tim Booth sings on “Hey Ma”, the new James album, “war is just about business”. The replacement cost of Trident of over £100 billion makes this all too clear. Andy Diagram, trumpet player, says ‘We’re very happy to be celebrating Scottish CND’s 50th birthday and contributing to the public debate on Trident.’ Fifty years of nonviolent, peaceful protest has led to a historic vote in the Scottish Parliament. In 2007 MSPs called upon the UK government not to renew Trident based at Faslane on the Firth of Clyde near Glasgow. All of the UK’s

Charlie G = A Big Fud!

The only thing a nuclear weapons program can guaruntee is future political tensions between emerging nations and the so-called "Super Powers" of the world today. As each 2nd and 3rd world country rises from economic desparity, their first show of real power and strength is not in the "will of the ppl" or the "economic security" they can offer their countrymen; it is a munitions battle of position and power. To stand shoulder to shoulder with the antagonists of this world is to admit you cannot think for yourself and create your own interpretaions of the world around you. All u do is feed the fire of ignorance which the governing body needs to keep the masses warm and cozy and submisive. Maybe you should stop worrying about the little day to day inconveniences which the impassioned ppl of this movement cause to locals and possibly yourself and consider what may happen the day a rising nation, run by a madman, decides to show their strenght by boming the UK.

Yeah, feel free to consider the people that have nothing to do with the Base who will be directly affected by the big blockade on the 1st Oct, certainly not getting my support. Keep the roads free with no delays and you may find locals more sympathetic to your cause.

Anyone coming to Faslane for October the 1st? There is hopefully going to be quite a big student mobilisation.
