Update 23 Jan., 2017 --
It emerged now that PM May knew about the failed Trident missile test before the vote in Parliament.
So much for her honesty and clarity and openness. She is no better than Cameron and the rest of them. Did you know that 90 per cent of the £200billion cost goes to America?
The vote should be taken again. MPs were misled.
Tories are
masters of cover-ups.
The question remains was the failure due to the Trident submarine firing or the missile? AND NO MORE COVER-UP
A report was leaked the 10 Downing Street supposedly cover-up the disastrous first British Trident nuclear weapon deterrent test.
The question remains was the failure due to the Trident submarine firing or the missile? AND NO MORE COVER-UP
A report was leaked the 10 Downing Street supposedly cover-up the disastrous first British Trident nuclear weapon deterrent test.
Sunday Times
reported the Trident II DS missiles experiment ended in a failure. It was
launched from British submarine HMS Vengence off the coast of Florida in June,
2016. A few weeks before the crucial
vote in the House of Commons. All the reason to cover it up.
The target
of the test was 5,600 miles off the west coast of Africa but went opposite
towards America. It is also claimed that Vengence underwent extra tests and
after 16 years when it fired it last missile it had returned to active service
despite the failed test.
The accident of a misfired missile is
exactly what the public fear and it can happen again despite all the
precaution of security.
It all occurred
after when Theresa May became Prime Minister. Of course, she never mentioned
the test failure in her speech to persuade the House of Commons and during the
five hours debate on 18 July, 2016.
MPs voted in
favour of Trident Nuclear Weapons by 472 to 117. It was almost all Conservative
Party and more than half of Labour Party. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn was
campaigning against it.
Scottish
National Party, LibDem and Labour leader Jeremy Corby were against it.
MPs are up
in arms because they realised they had been fooled. They demand an inquiry and
a statement from Defence Secretary Michael Fallon on Monday. 21 January, 2017.
By rights it should be stopped and a new vote given because previously it was
under false pretends.
Th whistle-blower
said: “There was a major panic at the highest level of government and military
after the first test of our nuclear deterrent in four years ended in disastrous
failure.
“Ultimately
Downing Street decided to cover-up the failed test. If the information were
made public, they knew how damaging it would be to the credibility of our
nuclear deterrent. The upcoming Trident vote made it all the more sensitive.”
Ministry of
Defence spokesperson told SKY News: “The capability and effectiveness of the
Trident missile, should we ever need to employ it, is unquestionable.
“In June the
Royal Navy contested a routine unarmed Trident missile test launched from HMS
Vengence as part an operation which is designed to certify the submarine and
its crew.
“Vengence
and her crew were successfully tested and certified. Allowing Vengence to
return into service. We have absolute confidence in our independent nuclear
deterrent.”
As the saying goes “At least somebody
has”
How dare the
Tories put out a statement like that with a pack of lies about the failed test
which means thousands or millions of lives could be in danger. It shows and
proves they have co calm about risking our lives as long they get what they
want.
As we all know there are more
advantages to it than meets the eye.
Sunday
Trident reports further that Trident missiles had been test-fired only five
times by UK’s submarines this century because each cost £17millions. Let’s hope
this is the truth it also means in a span of only 16 years which means approx. every
three years they waste £17millions besides the estimated £40billions on nuclear
missiles. None of the public wants and it can never be used because it would
only create total devastation for hundreds years to come.
Tests in
2000, 2005, 2009 and 2012 had been made public.
The missiles
are produced by US manufacturer Lockhead Martin and the cost of estimated
£40billion, which usually doubles and trebles, goes to America, UK’s supposedly
friends.
