If the UK got rid of its nukes then we’d just be defenceless against Russia, China, and even the US if the US decides they don’t value their old allies (which seems to be the case these days).
Russia and China do not care about a small damp island whose primary industries are depression and money laundering
Why do tankies always leap to the defence of Russia and China? Really odd.
Spank that tank!
“Why do the people who actually know things keep shutting down my dumbshit jingoiism? Why can’t these crazy radicals just let me advocate for nuclear Armageddon in peace?”
Tell me your opinion of what’s happening in Palestine right now

Yeah, you’re definitely on the moral side of the argument when you fantasise about murdering civilians with a nuclear bomb.
Whereas you ARE on the moral side of the argument because your government’s elite death squads actually do murder civilians
That link isn’t working for me. But in any case I can’t really change what the UK government does. I can vote but that doesn’t really make a huge difference.
At least you get that you don’t live in a democracy, just a dictatorship of capitalists with some occasional political pageantry.

Also ‘civilians’ lmao the denizens of London’s financial district are among the vilest ghouls to ever walk the Earth
Yes they’re civilians. Not just bankers (although I don’t think bankers deserve death just because someone on the internet doesn’t like them). There will be cleaners, bus drivers, shop workers, etc, and you want to murder them all with a nuclear bomb.
Unlike that person’s imaginary nukes, you are building real actual nukes and threatening civilians with them. And if they definitely weren’t threatening civilians they wouldn’t serve their purpose as a deterrent so there would be no point building them.
Look, it’s all love. I don’t want to murder them with my nuclear bomb that I have (my possession of which must be what’s warranting this level of concern from you) I just recognize that for our species to have a future on this planet they’re all gonna need to either be put in prison until they can be taught to value human life, or else be killed.
As for the hypothetical harm to the hypothetical civilians in the hypothetical scenario where I hypothetically have a nuclear bomb, I hope you have the same level of outrage about the real civilians in Gaza that the RAF has provided over 50% of the reconnaissance overflights for, to help Israel more efficiently massacre them using drones built with UK components.
