I have just been reading this article in the Independent.

Do you agree with the five?
Do you think there will be any more?
Will they change British politics?

A very interesting article about Trident.
Just as interesting are the banks that fund nuclear, including in Russia.

Monica, well said. Petra, are there any more prejudicial articles you would like to express that come from the pages of the National Front and similar propaganda sheets?

Granddaughter. That comment about the National Front made me laugh. It took me back to a night in the 70s when I had to run for my life from a National front mob while campaigning for the local Labour Party.
Good try, though.
