Northrop Grumman, who have offices in New Malden, are a company complicit in war crimes and violations of international law:

• They help to create intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of carrying nuclear warheads.
• They produce components for F-35 jets, which are used by the Israeli military against Palestinian civilians as part of their ongoing genocide in Gaza.
• They support Donald Trump, by supplying technologies deployed by US immigration authorities to monitor and police the US–Mexico border.

We, the undersigned residents of South West London, are opposed to Northrop Grumman, one of the world’s largest arms manufacturers, maintaining offices in our local area. Accordingly, we call on the government to:

• Shut down Northrop Grumman’s offices in New Malden.
• Revoke Northrop Grumman’s export licences, in line with the UK’s obligations under international law and the criteria set out in the UK Strategic Export Licensing framework.
• Conduct an urgent review of the role that UK-based arms company offices play in facilitating human rights abuses overseas.
