Trident debate 14 June 2007
Abstained on motion to oppose the renewal of Trident
Views on nuclear weapons:
Replied to survey in November 2006 saying she was opposed to the upgrading or replacing of Trident and said "All of my adult life, I have argued against the acquisition and retention of nuclear weapons. I view the increasing proliferation of WMD's with profond regret and deep concern for coming generations"
Trident debate 21 December 2006

Voted against an SNP motion and a Lib Dem amendment. Both called on the UK Government not to go ahead at this time with the proposal to replace Trident.
