It is a basic principle of human security that one cannot be safe until all are safe. The US plan to deploy its nuclear weapons to Lakenheath is already adding to the escalating threat and counter threat pattern that is edging us ever closer to nuclear catastrophe. The UK’s ready compliance with the plan is utterly shameful. In spite of the fact that the new Labour government has committed itself afresh to illegal weapons of mass destruction we all must be doing what we can to waken our leaders to the reality of the dire emergency facing us all, and to the need for the global elimination of nuclear weapons. Our best wishes are with the Lakenheath Alliance for Peace for its upcoming walk and camp, which is a timely opportunity to apply fresh pressure.
