Labour — Liverpool Garston

Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 November 2024

Debate

Nuclear Weapons

Contribution

The UK has always recognised the possible humanitarian consequences of the use of nuclear weapons. The proposed panel does not establish a clear mandate to address maintaining long-held knowledge of the devastating consequences of nuclear war using scientific research, and the resolution will not advance progress towards nuclear disarmament. That is why we voted against it.
