While the government has reduced public services and the military, billions spent on nuclear projects

not so long ago the world watched in horror as Japan has suffered from the force of the tsunami. The scenes of devastation that invade our screens and tragic images of people in search of missing loved ones haunt us for a long time. The threat of injury to the Fukushima nuclear station has given the world a wake-up call.

But today the anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima, this other image of the destruction of Japan leaves many wondering why on Earth would approve the construction of a new nuclear weapon capable of causing death and destruction thousands of times worse than the damage caused by natural disasters and elimination of the fall of Fukushima.

This week, the House of Commons Select Committee of Defence released a damning report and stressed that the core defense capabilities are below the minimum required. Reductions in conventional forces are no longer a myth but a reality, layoffs are underway. Meanwhile, the NDA considers that the estimate of government spending on replacing Trident in the next 10 years is massively underestimated, with a total cost of design, purchasing, equipment maintenance and ready for life to be more than £ 100 billion.

When I suggested recently in the House of Commons that the case against moral replacing Trident has never been more convincing, the Defence Secretary Liam Fox, was arrogant disdain. But I think to much about wanting the government to focus on improving health services and care for our elderly and disabled, education of our youth and housing for the future.

the "door" The decision was not made until after the next general election, which may influence future policies. Within the Labour Party, have the opportunity through policy reviews that take place to discuss our position and we have to give party members of the voice. Otherwise we will be behind the audience, taking into account the results of opinion polls underscore limited support for replacing Trident.

Trident was excluded from the review of the defense, provide financing when many other commitments of government spending is reduced. Many of us within the Labor Party believes that no case has been made to continue the replacement and that the party must continue to press for a comprehensive review of defense policy - you can add your support here . The public deserves to know the comparative costs of conventional defense and keeping the maintenance of nuclear weapons, and that information must inform any decision on the construction of new submarines.
is my personal opinion is no longer a loss of funds from the Department of Defense on nuclear weapons. What better time than the Hiroshima Day to renew our commitment to a world free of nuclear weapons and continue the campaign into a reality.
