The U K As A Nuclear Superpower?

[sunny-dave]

No link but, since it's election time, do you think a cash-strapped future Government could cancel Trident?

I'd cancel the damn thing in a heartbeat - a waste of money on something that would/could never be used - just a "big boy's toy", used for posturing purposes by those who think the UK still has a credible role as a Global Policeman.

But would the 'dark forces' inside the the Defence Establishment allow any Government (of any hue) to pull the plug?

But, if we cancel HS2 the Russians would find out.
Think of all the children......
