Waging peace not war

Additional Information

That HM government should end its policy of covertly and overtly waging, funding and seeking to profit from war and invest instead in peace, justice and better understanding with all nations.

War is immensely costly in human, environmental and economic terms and brings few benefits. Peace by contrast is priceless yet costs relatively very little and investment in it brings great dividends.

When WW l and WW ll ended it was universally agreed that we should have no more wars but we had the Cold War and many others.
The Cold War ended and now we have the so called War on terror which involves many wars and HM govt is advocating Trident renewal.
None of these have brought any benefit only untold suffering and harm.

It is time that HM govt acted responsibly and divested of war and invested in peace and peacemaking, the alternative is certain destruction.
