Trident is being upgraded in secret, report claims

Trident is being upgraded in secret, report claims | UK news | The Guardian

	Quote: Work is under way in secret at Britain’s nuclear bomb factory

Makes you proud to be British.


	Quote: The MoD has declined to answer questions on the costs of the overall Trident programme on the ground that the information is classified. The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament has estimated it will cost £205bn.

Honestly, sometimes I'd sooner have all the MoD's funding transferred to a Ministry of Silly Walks. At least that would be funny as opposed to a fcuking disgrace.

EDIT

Wouldn't upgrading the warhead yield be against some treaties we've signed?
