Billions will be wasted, nuclear waste will be created, a dangerous
precedent of reversing disarmament will have been set, and the world will
be more in safe, all for no gain. If the UK was wise now (and but isn’t)
it would be pursuing a very different foreign policy, based on that of
Norway. That country does punch above its weight. It has a strong foreign
policy based on aid. It uses that to build strong diplomatic links around
the world. And in the process it works, quietly, on conflict resolution.
That’s the way foreign policy should be done. We are just aggressively
waving colonial flags. And that’s a disaster as well as being nuclear
insanity.
