Let the people decide. Trident or missile defence,
We have a once in a generation opportunity to discuss our nuclear ambitions. At a cost of £75 billion minimum, we who are paying for it deserve the right to say yes or no to trident.
The questions that should be put in a referendum are simply these:
1) should we renew trident at a cost of £75 billion
2) should we scrap trident and opt for missile defence which will save x billions.
Why is this important?
If we don't fight for our voice on this it will be another 40 years before it can be spoke of again.
We need to ask ourselves, do we want to pay for a weapon, at huge expense, that ensures we can burn the flesh off the children of our enemies after were dead, or should we purchase ballistic missile defence at a far lesser cost to ensure a chance of survival and thus we avoid becomming mass murderes by default.
It's time someone showed the world a better way.
