Always was. Like all things nuke, the worst thing you can do is just oppose everything because we end up with old stuff by default.
Moving Aldermaston to Hunterston, 4000 jobs within 20 mins of Glasgow. THAT'D work. hint hint @michaelgove

Yep skilled work force already in place. Port facilities and rail link also already in place. What’s not to like?

This is the "garrison effect" that can drive economic growth in such regions. 4000 jobs, thats huge. As for Berkshire? turn it into commuter homes. Berkshire needs more houses, job market there is SOLID. Aldermaston is historical. It was built to service 50s south coast bombers

"Aldermaston is historical" That may be so, but it's also somewhat radioactive, you won't be building a housing estate on it.

Whats radioactive? A few machine, lathes and a meltshop that will be moved? Capenhurst and Risley have been redeveloped.

Think there’s a bit more that at Aldermaston.

It can be rebuilt in Scotland. Plenty of early research sites like Harwell have been successfully decommissioned.

I'm not sure the UK moving all it's nuclear weapons construction capacity to Scotland is a good idea. If Scotland should ever go independent, then what? You'd have to move everything again, reconstruct it, and remediate the Scottish site. At vast expense.

Counterpoint, it would help stop MPs in London casually talking about, "letting the Scots go"

But they do. Michael is well aware of that English nationalism. It needs killed with fire. A very big threat to the UK. Garrison effect has been underutilised so far. 4000 jobs near Glasgow. Not 500 civil servants, 4000 technicians and managers. That's a game changer.
