Julie to hold public meeting on Trident

Julie will hold a public meeting on the question of whether to renew Britain's Trident nuclear missile system on Tuesday 13 February, from 7pm to 9pm at Ararat Baptist Church, on Whitchurch Common.

Julie said: "This meeting will be a chance for the public to air their views on whether the UK should renew its nuclear deterrent.

"I am beginning from the position that I am extremely sceptical about whether we should replace Trident. But I am keen to hear the views of my constituents. To that end, at the Ararat meeting we will be hearing from a speaker from CND who will put the case against renewal, whilst Wayne David, MP for Caerphilly, will put the case for.

"This will not be a strict debate but just an opportunity for all points of view to be heard. I hope that my constituents will use this opportunity to discuss a critical question for our national defence."
