Labour CND is delighted to announce a conference in London on January 30th 2016 to discuss the Labour Party’s approach to Trident and foreign policy in the light of the election of Jeremy Corbyn. The conference will include sessions on trade unions and Trident, foreign policy and parliamentary campaigning on nuclear weapons.
This is a ticketed event to cover our costs for the day. Tickets are strictly limited. Make sure you get yours soon!
