AS WELSH peace activists take their campaign opposing space radar to Westminster, they have challenged Pembrokeshire Labour MP Henry Tufnell to speak out on the issue.

In 2024, the government confirmed plans to develop a major space radar station at Cawdor Barracks in Brawdy, Pembrokeshire, part of a network of ground-based radars in Australia, Britain and the United States providing “global space monitoring.” Campaigners fear it could allow unstable US President Donald Trump to dominate space from Wales, making the country a target.

The Pembrokeshire Against the Radar Campaign says it has written to its local MP several times but claims Mr Tufnell ignores its letters.
