Shadow Scotland secretary Ian Murray (pictured), and shadow Foreign Office ministers Catherine West and Fabian Hamilton pledged to 'work for the ratification of the TPNW'.
They've never existed. Nukes are as fake as democracy. Next they'll be telling us they're going to the moon.
ReplyDeleteOh, wait........
Nukes do not exist.
ReplyDeleteSadly nukes are very real. I wish neither nukes or fools existed.

Nah. Still fake. Nice try though.
DeleteThis cannot come to pass until Israel is disarmed in the nuclear sense.
ReplyDeleteThe Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) includes a comprehensive set of prohibitions on participating in any nuclear weapon activities. These include undertakings not to develop, test, produce, acquire, possess, stockpile, use or threaten to use nuclear weapons. The Treaty also prohibits the deployment of nuclear weapons on national territory and the provision of assistance to any State in the conduct of prohibited activities. States parties will be obliged to prevent and suppress any activity prohibited under the TPNW undertaken by persons or on territory under its jurisdiction or control. The Treaty also obliges States parties to provide adequate assistance to individuals affected by the use or testing of nuclear weapons, as well as to take necessary and appropriate measure of environmental remediation in areas under its jurisdiction or control contaminated as a result of activities related to the testing or use of nuclear weapons.
The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons was adopted by the Conference (by a vote of 122 States in favour, with one vote against and one abstention) at the United Nations on 7 July 2017, and opened for signature on 20 September 2017. Following the deposit with the Secretary-General of the 50th instrument of ratification or accession of the Treaty on 24 October 2020, it entered into force on 22 January 2021 in accordance with its article 15 (1).
