Britain invests £1bn in nuclear weapons - Isn't Britian under austerity, etc??

PressTV - Britain invests £1bn in nuclear weapons: Britain will announce a £1 billion investment in the country’s new generation of nuclear weapons, local media reported.


The massive investment in nukes to be soon announced by Philip Hammond, the Defense Secretary, comes as the UK is an axis of a U.S.-led drive to strip Iran and other non-nuclear countries of their inalienable rights to master nuclear energy program, which is enshrined in the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Hammond will announce a deal ordering nuclear reactors for a new class of submarines to replace the current Vanguard fleet, which carries Britain’s Trident nuclear arsenal
