UK's Nuclear Deterrent

I have given the figures for the cost of building the submarines. I am also clear that the in-service cost is about 6% of the defence budget, or

about 13p in every £100 of Government spending. There is also a significant economic benefit to the renewal of our nuclear deterrent, which might be of interest to members of the Scottish National party.
