Question 4. Are you for or against the construction of new nuclear power stations in Scotland ?

- Against

"I am strongly opposed to nuclear weapons and any replacement of the Trident weapons syste. They have no place in modern society.

"The Scottish National Party is against the construction of new nuclear power stations in Scotland and I concur with this view".

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."
