Wages not Weapons: Join CND at the Tory party conference 2023
?
In just under two weeks time, Tory party members and MPs will descend on Manchester for their annual conference. After more than a decade in power, the Conservative government has lurched from crisis to crisis, leaving millions of people worried about the cost of living and the growing climate emergency. Meanwhile, successive prime ministers have made billions of pounds available for weapons and war - including ?9 billion extra for nuclear weapons over the next five years - all while our public services continue to deteriorate.?
?
In opposition to these warped spending priorities, CND will be there to spread our Wages not Weapons campaign, joining many more organisations at The People's Assembly national demonstration taking place outside the conference.
?
We're calling on supporters to join our peace bloc on the day and help spread the message that money for weapons is a political choice that would be better spent on fixing our public services, tackling the climate emergency, and promoting a foreign policy based on dialogue and cooperation.?
- Sunday, 1 October
- Assemble on Oxford Road, Manchester from 12 noon
