Then I guess it would depend on how seriously the assailant takes the threat, or cares for anything more than the objective.

Well that strikes China and Russia from the list, too much to lose, both take our threat very seriously, so that leaves us with Rouge Nations such as the PRNK, our intelligence suggests they haven’t got the capability’s to come through the door at present so by my reckoning the deterrents working [emoji106][emoji120]

I'm not sure whether this is a serious post or not or you are just taking the piss

If you are serious please re-post it on the Brexit thread and we can pull this apart line by line.

You can " pull this apart line by line " all you want , you`ve already made it clear what you are going to say , i`m wrong you`re right . I am happy with what i have said and checked my facts , so if you don`t like it that`s fine .

An attack on one NATO country is deemed an attack on them all. It does not necessarily mean that the UK's Nukes (which are American) are the reason the Russians or Chinese are in anyway concerned of the UK's missiles. PRNK are likely to target the US however futile this may be and the Chinese would never allow it.

Meanwhile it is the ordinary man and woman in any of these countries who would pay the price. The politicians and selected others would be safe in their luxury deep underground bunkers paid for by those who are left to suffer the effects of the disaster.

I get it, your not a fan of nuclear deterrent, that’s fair although it would of saved a bit of time if you’d just said that in the beginning [emoji23]

All I’ll say is that in October 62 the world came within inches of WW3 and probably unspeakable ramifications, thankfully the pause for thought that was afforded to the Russians imho saved the world and indeed has continued to do so ever since.


Nice chatting to you [emoji106]

1. Why ?
China

2. How are we going to pay for it given our current debt situation ?
China, however most likely indirectly, by trading with nations that rely massively on China to make themselves richer whilst simultaneously being bent over and rodgered overall by......... China.

Not a fan of nuclear weapons no, but worse than that are the fools that are in control of them.

Nice chatting to you too

If anything demonstrated the disconnect between this government and the problems this country faces this is it.

More nukes for the UK, the answer to a question nobody is asking.

How is 200 warheads more of a deterrent than 140 warheads?
It's just crazy.

Risk Peace not War.
