With the death toll in Gaza now in excess of 33,000 and the killing of seven aid workers by an Israeli drone last week, fresh pressure is mounting on the British government to release the legal advice it has received on possible British complicity in any war crimes committed in Gaza via its arms sales.
Voices from across the political spectrum have called for this advice to be released and for Britain to put this embargo in place immediately.
If your MP has not already signed Early Day Motion 177 on suspending arms sales to Israel, you can use our lobby tool to email them asking them to do so. |

Nuclear exploitation: how uranium mining harms communities webinar
With nuclear often wrongly touted as a 'clean source' of electricity generation, an aspect seldom discussed in Britain's debate about nuclear power is the sourcing of the uranium needed to fuel its reactors. Uranium mining leaves the surrounding environment contaminated and has had devastating health consequences for those, mainly Indigenous peoples, who live and work near these mines.
Join CND and Beyond Nuclear this Thursday, 11 April, for a webinar exploring these unacceptable harms, where we will hear from experts, and Indigenous campaigners opposing uranium mining where they live - which is often far away from where the power created is consumed. |
With guest speakers: Carletta Tilousi, from the Havasupai Tribal Council – guardians of the Grand Canyon; Bruno Chareyron, Scientific Advisor at CRIIRAD (Commission for Independent Research and Information about RADiation); Linda Pentz Gunter, Beyond Nuclear. Chaired by Kate Hudson, CND General Secretary.
