A better analogy would be the ant already has a nuclear bomb, and are you any more likely to step on it if it has an older nuclear bomb rather than a shiny new one.

20 billion quid more likely?

If there really is no difference between the old and the new one other than the new one being shiny then I agree, that would be a waste of money.

Theres little difference in deterrent. A nuke is a nuke is a nuke

More to do with replacing the subs than the missiles.

Suppose the little bastards get properly organised

Didn't take long did it? The swivel eyed loons have already started.

David Cameron launches charm offensive to head off Right-wing rebel Tory MPs
The Prime Minister holds talks in Downing Street on how to improve relations between ministers and Conservative foot-soldiers

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/david-cameron/11594812/David-Cameron-launches-charm-offensive-to-head-off-Right-wing-rebel-Tory-MPs.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politic ... y-MPs.html</a>

Up to 60 rebel MPs are now said to be preparing to demand that Mr Cameron negotiates a new power for the Commons to veto any European Union law. The Prime Minister has previously dismissed such a plan as “impossible” to deliver without Britain leaving the EU altogether.

While Major had 20-odd bastards that gave him incredible grief there's now about 100 of the drooling fuckwits.

Cameron's going to miss Clegg isn't he? He's now got a Cabinet with the likes of Gove, Grayling, May and Hammond pressing him to give the swivel eyed loons danegeld with Gideon Osborne as the voice of centrist sanity.

10 fire stations in London to close due to cut backs

This is clearly terrible news. But where does the money come from to keep paying for these? It would have to be borrowed but then do people expect that our children will be able to write it off? Money does not come from nowhere - somewhere down the line someone has to pay.

Sturgeon makes me laugh when she says we can't afford to continue austerity. The whole reason for austerity measures is because we can't afford things. If there was loads of money then cutbacks like the above would not be made. These decisions are not taken lightly.

Why don't we just shut everything down and pay off the debt then? Simples!

We're expecting our children to do so a few years into the future so we can keep ourselves today in the lifestyle we feel we are entitled to.
