I believe that was the context in which the New Zealand Labour Party came to power in the 1984 election and promptly declared nuclear weapons persona non grata in New Zealand.

Amusing/bemusing to look back though not in anger, and notice the changes ...

A toast to the man who kept his head and kept us all alive! Here's to Stanislaw Petrov!
