Threats of War: Britain’s New Global Role

The government has increased the UK’s stockpile of nuclear warheads, ramped up hostility to Russia, invested billions in new cyber and spacewar tech and stepped up the British military presence in the Asia Pacific, all as part of its vision of ‘Global Britain’.

Join leading activists, writers and academics in analysing this dangerous new programme of interventionism and discuss how the movement can best counter it. 

There will be sessions on Britain’s role in the Middle East; Biden and the conflict with China; Final frontiers: the arms trade, space war and AI; Racism and Islamophobia; War and climate change and more. 

Speakers include: Tariq Ali, Jeremy Corbyn, Lindsey German, Paul Rogers, Lowkey, Kate Hudson and more.

Join Medea Benjamin from CODE PINK: Women For Peace and Lindsey German from Stop the War Coalition to discuss how we can continue to come together against war in this extraordinary time.

Sharp foreign policy changes are needed to help stop the spread of the disease amongst some of the most vulnerable populations on earth.

Meanwhile, vital funds that could have been invested in the NHS and our public services have been wasted to fund unnecessary wars and illegal military interventions for two decades.
