No to Trident replacement

Phillip Stephens says what needs to be said, which is Britain shouldn't replace Trident.

It's remarkable how many other sensible people seem to support this ridiculously expensive vanity-trip. This is not an argument for nuclear disarmanent, as there may be a requirement for nuclear weapons in a post-Soviet Union world, it's just that this requirement could easily be met by a few planes with free-fall bombs.
