Motion Text

leave out from 'Gimblett' to end and add ' to give a candid interview to The Express newspaper on 22nd October explaining that there had been 'a huge misunderstanding'; that she 'never said nuclear weapons were illegal'; that she may have made a wrong decision as she is not an international lawyer; that she had not ruled that Britain's Trident nuclear deterrent is illegal; and that it would have been better if this case had been heard in the High Court rather than in front of her as 'a little person doing a job'.'.
