PHIL MAXWELL

We should be planning for peace, not war. Labour’s plan to significantly increase defence spending off the back of cuts to vital services for some of the most vulnerable people in our society is disgraceful, immoral and irresponsible.

No money for teachers, nurses or doctors, but there is money for war. No money for the NHS, but there is money for war. No money for the disabled or elderly, but there is money for war.

Russia has shown no intention to attack the UK. Why on Earth is Starmer banging the drum for war with nuclear armed Russia?

We need a more sustainable economy, grounded in social justice and the urgent need to build peace. An economy based on the needs of the many not the few. An economy that puts people before profit.
