** Build Back Better
------------------------------------------------------------

The last few months have turned the world upside down. The coronavirus pandemic has changed our lives in an unprecedented fashion and it’s clear there can be no going back to the way things were before.

Out of this catastrophe we need new thinking from the government, to meet the real challenges our society faces. Pandemics will continue to shape and limit our lives; the climate crisis worsens; a deepening economic crisis is unfolding; water and food insecurity – these are all major security problems. But our government’s capacity to deal with them is hindered by massive wasteful spending on nuclear weapons: it is currently in the process of spending £205 billion on replacing Trident, the UK’s nuclear weapons system. But these weapons are irrelevant to the actual security challenges we face. The money wasted on them must be re-allocated to meet our real needs.

This is the time for a new vision of society, and nuclear weapons have no part in it.

New coalition

As part of this work, CND is delighted to be working with Build Back Better, ([link removed]) a coalition which campaigns for a new deal that protects public services, tackles inequality in our communities, provides secure well-paid jobs and creates a shockproof economy which can fight the climate crisis.

Action

And while we can’t take to the streets right now, there is still plenty we can all do to make sure our voices are heard.
* Share this video on Twitter ([link removed]) explaining what Build Back Better means
* Write to your MP ([link removed]) to demand no blank cheques for a recovery plan
* Join a virtual rally ([link removed]) to let the government know how we feel

Another world is possible, let's go and create it!

If you're thinking about heading out for a picnic anytime soon, they why not kit yourself out with a CND Logo aluminium water bottle?

These, as well as our fab range of badges ([link removed]) , books ([link removed]) , posters ([link removed]) , and classic logo T-shirts ([link removed]) , are available at [link removed]. ([link removed])
Buying merchandise from the CND shop is a fantastic way of supporting us - not only does your CND water bottle, tote bag, T-shirt or badge help spread the message, but profits from each sale go straight back into our campaign against nuclear weapons.
