About the United Nations Treaty… Why did we ask the candidates about the TPNW?
The TPNW is like a litmus test for all the ScotGov policies on climate, migration, arms trading, IHL andIsrael/Palestine. On our Parliamentary page, see how campaigners from Secure Scotland, SCND, CAAT, FoE, STW and PSC chose 4 key questions on these issues of all the candidates:
If elected will you:
1. Sign the ICAN TPNW Parliamentarians Pledge, Yes or No
2. Support a continued ban on any new nuclear power plants in Scotland, Yes or No
3. Support infrastructure of renewable energy to replace gas, oil and coal? Yes or No
4. Ensure Scotland and its infrastucture does not violate international law or support war crimes? Yes or No
