Background
Require Parliamentary supermajority approval for: a) Each overseas military deployment outside of NATO-led operations, and b) The establishment or continued operation of UK military bases beyond NATO territories.
We think real strength lies in restraint and diplomacy and that military action fuels instability—it doesn’t stop it. We request Parliament draw the line, and enshrine these safeguards in law through a Sovereign Defence Doctrine and Armed Forces Act reform.
