Why does Britain need new nuclear weapons?
Trident is being updated. Its not a case of replacing old with new, more a case of adding new technology to the existing technology. Anyway, there’s no rush, we’ve got until c2025. Worry ye not! No matter which party is in power in UK, Con or Lab, both will update Trident. Only the LibDems are talking of ‘scrapping’ Trident. Anyone in favour of the above can vote LibDem. If we get a hung parliament at the next general election in about three years time, the LibDems say they will support Labour. Who knows! The squabbling, if such happens, will be interesting to watch. In the meantime, our enemies, whoever they are, will attack.
