Theresa May 'faith' in Trident after test 'malfunction'
Where this gets interesting is that the British Prime Minister may or may not have known about this before the vote went to parliament to renew&#x2F;upgrade this white elephant.<p>The funny thing is that the nuclear deterrent of the UK is obsolete for reasons not widely discussed. Nowadays anyone with enough money to bother can make themselves a &#x27;drone submarine&#x27; to track the nuclear subs out of Scotland and to wherever they hide in the ocean depths. This is a game changer and the people in GCHQ really are not pleased with this.<p>The other thing about the &#x27;British&#x27; nuclear deterrent is that the U.S. holds the keys to the launch buttons, so the UK would not be able to &#x27;nuke Trump&#x27; (or take out the Pentagon for the good of the world...).<p>Anyway, keep watching this story and the political ramifications, if the Prime Minister did know that Trident was not working before the vote to waste more money on this &#x27;preparation for war&#x27; then that could be a sackable offence...
