| Voted for motion which opposed Trident replacement | ||||||||
| Views on nuclear weapons: | ||||||||
|
Replied to survey in November 2006 and said: "I oppose any nuclear weapons of mass destruction being located in Scotland and most definitely oppose the upgrading or replacement of the Trident nuclear weapon system. "The SNP has a proud history of being anti-nuclear and because nuclear weapons breach international humanitarian laws and are immoral, they have no place in a modern day Scotland. "I want Scotland to be independent and believe that that Scotland should be nuclear free and a force to encourage global peace and reconciliation. WMD is impotent against any new global terrorist threat. Instead, because the weapons are located in Scottish waters, it makes us more of a target. "The moral arguments against WMD are very clear as are the economic ones. Taxpayers’ money would be much better spent on ensuring we have a good health service or for funding improvements to our education system. "I fully support the aims of Scotland for Peace." |
