BBC News - HARDtalk, Nuclear Deterrent Discussion

Shaun Ley debates nuclear deterrence with activist Kate Hudson and writer Douglas Murray.

Kate Hudson, General Secretary of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and Douglas Murray, Associate Director of the Henry Jackson Society discuss nuclear deterrence.

Shaun Ley speaks to Kate Hudson, General Secretary of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and Douglas Murray, Associate Director of the Henry Jackson Society. Are nuclear weapons the answer to global insecurity, or one of its causes?
