        If there are no circumstances in which you'd use a nuclear weapon, you haven't got a nuclear deterrent.

        Biggest threat to UK is arguably non state actors like IS. Trident inflexible relic of Cold War

        Pointless anyway and ruinously expensive. Money better spent equipping the Army properly.

      Good! Not a single 'nuclear deterrent' has stopped the terrorists so far. Maybe if your party stopped selling weapons to terrorists....
