Unfortunately my current gremlins do not allow me to read linked messages, so I am unaware about Steve Jarron is on about with "MUST READ".
However Bill McD's reply would suggest that whatever it was about - he has some serious reservations about it's veracity , and the said B.McD, being a staunch member of CND, if he has reservations, there must be reservations about whatever it was.
This whole subject of Trident will, no doubt, possibly rumble on in these pages so that either sides of the debate can let off steam on their particular standpoint - although currently it is loaded 90% on the CND side. However, regardless of these musings, decisions of this sort will take place at higher echelons of political decision making, and whatever the outcome, we will all have to find something else to grumble about.

There are lots of papers out there that suggest that without direct US approval we couldn't launch. The US can just switch off the targetting satelittes that Trident uses and the things would drop from the sky. They only "let" us have them so they don't look bad on their own. So it's not an independent capability as it is sold to the UK tax payer.

Here's the Indie backing this theory up.
