On 14 March 2007 voted against the Government motion which called for the renewal of Trident
Told BBC Scotland on 15 December 2006 -
"From my own individual conscience I can not think of a circumstance where the use of such weapons would be justified.
"There are very genuine concerns, I, like many of my other colleagues, believe in strong, conventional forces and we believe that is the best way we can achieve the best security and defence of our country."
Replied to survey in November 2006 and said:
"I will be happy to advise of my decision as and when the Government's White Paper is issued and the terms of the question to be put to Parliament is known."
