CND exposes myths surrounding Trident
Jobs can be invested elsewhere in Britain’s industries
ANTI-NUCLEAR weapons campaigners claimed yesterday they had exposed the lie that the controversial renewal of Britain’s Trident nuclear deterrent would safeguard jobs.
In a report published yesterday, CND set out the employment implications of cancelling Trident replacement.
The report, written by economist Michael Burke, suggested that there was significant potential for industrial development and jobs creation throughout Britain if the £205 billion planned for Trident is invested elsewhere in the economy.
