Good first steps but this falls far short of the fully funded programme we need to deal with legacy submarines in Devonport and Rosyth. Key here is funding and ‘borrowing’ line of credit for civil nuclear clean up to include these subs. https://t.co/oNQ04z94Ou

In debate on nuclear weapons, minister unable to answer what moral authority we have to lecture other countries not to acquire nukes, when we ourselves are upgrading ours?
Does he really believe world where all countries have nukes would be safer than one we have today? @CNDuk

I am proud of my family record, historically & currently, in armed forces & I won’t be lectured to about my respect for service personnel. Of course I am grateful for work of submariners. It is telling @GavinWilliamson went low when I asked him about nuclear sub decommissioning https://t.co/NWI8f7lBem

🥀 Jeremy Corbyn abandoned his principles and the majority of Labour MPs voted with the Tories to impose Trident on Scotland against our will.

@BASIC_int point out underwater unmanned, networked drone technology is advancing. It will revolutionise anti-submarine warfare. These technologies could render Trident obsolete. #CASDdebate
