Boris Johnson should take heed as UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons comes into force on Friday, 22 January 2021.

Thanks in large part to continued activism by nuclear campaign group CND, the government is facing a rebellion of MPs in today’s vote on whether to renew Britain’s nuclear missile system, Trident.
