NUCLEAR weapons campaigners will meet in Exeter to discuss the future of the UK's Trident missile system.
On Wednesday, April 3, Bruce Kent, a prominent nuclear disarmament campaigner for over 50 years, will talk at Exeter Community Centre.
Mr Kent, 83, is vice president of the campaign for nuclear disarmament (CND), and is currently on his scrap Trident tour, which will see him travel throughout England to debate the need for the UK to have nuclear weapons.
The meeting is hosted by the Deputy Lord Mayor of Exeter, Councillor Percy Prowse, and is welcome to anyone.
Exeter's CND is organising the meeting, and has invited the main political parties in Exeter to come and defend their views. Local MPs were invited, but cannot make it.
A spokesperson for Exeter's CND said: "We hope and expect that many supporters of CND's aims will come along. But we hope that supporters of Trident too will come and join the argument."
The Government had planned to replace the UK's nuclear deterrent, but has since delayed the decision until after the next election.
The meeting starts at 7.15pm on April 3 at Exeter Community Centre, St David's Hill, Exeter.
