EU: Don't invest in weapons

The European Union was envisaged as a project of peace but now the European Commission is under pressure from the arms industry to subsidise weapons development. Members of the Parliament will vote soon on the proposals: please tell them to vote for peace, not to subsidise weapons.

Security and Jobs

Military spending and bombing don't make us safer. Join us in calling for a new approach to security, and for a shift from arms to renewables – a change that would create more and better jobs, and a safer world. Discuss the alternatives to arms industry jobs at the Lucas Plan commemoration on 26 November in Birmingham.
