Election Hustings at the Guildhall

Event Date: 3rd May 2015
Location: The Guildhall, Salisbury

Start time: 14:30

A chance to question candidates about their concept of how Trident Replacement can be justified, both in terms of its potential use and the estimated cost of £100 billion.

We all struggle to understand what £100 billion actually means. Here are few ways of trying to make such a sum real:

It’s like handing every living person on the planet £14

Over the life of Trident, it is like each tax payer in the UK contributing £3,413 to the project.

Couldn’t that money be spent in a more positive way?

Trident discussions were quite extensive at Bishop’s Wordsworth Hustings. Let’s try to ensure the topic gets an appropriate airing at the Guildhall.
