Trident: Nowhere To Go

Submitted by CND on Mon, 06/02/2012 - 12:20

Our new report, Trident: Nowhere To Go, coincides with developments towards a Scottish independence referendum and analyses why alternative locations to Faslane and Coulport in Scotland - the current home of the Trident nuclear weapon system - are simply not tenable.

The report, written by John Ainslie, is a detailed analysis of government archives when defence officials discussed various possible locations for siting Polaris, Trident's predecessor.

With those locations including the 2012 Olympics sailing venue, National Trust land and densely populated residential areas, the conclusion is that there is simply nowhere for Trident to go.
