Last year, the Conservatives said they wanted to increase the support
given to arms exports,
and use arms sales as a "foreign policy tool" - a truly alarming

More information can be found here in the May 2010 CAAT bulletin - along with info on the upcoming Stop Week, People's Jury and BAE AGM, a new briefing paper 'Private Gain, Public Pain' and more.
