Blockading the DSEI Arms Fair

Who are the merchants of death?

Nuclear weapons manufacturers are visiting London in September.

They will exhibit at one of the world’s largest arms fairs the Defence & Security Equipment International (DSEI).

Some manufacture key parts of the UK’s Trident nuclear weapons system.

BAE Systems are building new nuclear-armed submarines at Barrow shipyard.

Rolls-Royce are building nuclear reactors in Derby to power the submarines.

Lockheed Martin are supplying the Trident D5 missiles to carry the warheads.
