The events in Afghanistan show that more bombs, rifles or tanks don’t bring real security for women. We say NO to the DSEI arms fair, which will be held at the London EXCEL centre in September. Write to your MP with your concerns about the UKs involvement in the arms trade.

Retweeted by CAAT "When we ally ourselves with countries such as Saudi Arabia, our moral credibility to speak about human rights is fundamentally undermined. We need a longer-term approach, including stopping arms sales to oppressive regimes that do not abide by international law". @CarolineLucas twitter.com/CarolineLucas/…
🚨🚨🚨3 weeks to go!!!🚨🚨🚨
The week of action 6-16 Se#StopDSEIopDSEI is almost here! Every 2 years, the world's largest arms fair comes to London. This is where those who profit from war & repression do business. This is where we can stop facebook.com/events/1999886…qv4tmNz
Retweeted by CAAT A really worrying development. The use of chemical agents, whether white phosphorus in Palestine, toxic CS gas in Bahrain, or sarin in Ghouta in Syria, is a vital issue of public concern. Solidarity with all those saying no to this. twitter.com/PSCupdates/sta…
A heartbreaking quote from Azim Fakhri, one of our exhibiting artists. ATAF stands in solidarity with the people of Afghanistan and everyone affected by this crisis 🖤6

The UK is investing heavily in US-built armed drones and is about to begin testing them in congested skies over populous areas of Britain. @tmestreet argues that undue corporate & military influence on regulators is putting civilians at unacceptable risk.
