??UK designs secret nuclear warhead??
Monday, March 13, 2006, London: Britain has been secretly designing a new nuclear warhead in conjunction with the United States, provoking a legal row over the proliferation of nuclear weapons, a media report claimed here on Sunday. The government has been pushing ahead with the programme while claiming that no decision has been made on a successor to Britain??s Trident nuclear deterrent, the Sunday Times reported.
Work on a new weapon by scientists at the Atomic Weapons Establishment at Aldermaston in Berkshire has been under way since Prime Minister Tony Blair was re-elected as Prime Minister in last May, and is now said to be ahead of a similar US research, the report claimed.
The aim, according to the report, is to produce a simpler device using proven components to avoid breaching the ban on nuclear testing. Known as the Reliable Replacement Warhead (RRW), it is being designed so that it can be tested in a laboratory rather than by detonation, the paper said.
??We??ve got to build something that we can never test and be absolutely confident that, when we use it, it will work,? one senior British source told the newspaper. The secret programme to build a new warhead in close cooperation with the Americans will spark anger among Labour opponents of any replacement of the Trident programme, which is estimated to have cost about £10 billion.
Developing a new weapon would also be a material breach of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. The office of Lord Goldsmith, refused to comment on whether it had been asked for legal advice by the 10 Downing Street.

Oh this is just brilliant!!:confused: What a way to make friends around the world!!!:mad:
Tell the developing world that they are not allowed to become nuclear, and go ahead and build your own improved nuclear bombs.:thumbsup:
I love the statement in red. Yes, let's be absolutely confident that when we use it, it will work. So, no question then, the American Admin. and Brits intend to bomb the hell out of someone and they intend to use nuclear bombs.:mad:
And they wonder why they are hated so much by Muslims and others around the world. If that's the attitude of British and American authorities, I say we get rid of them now by whatever means is necessary and start over.
Protest people!!! Protest in any way you can!!:thumbsup:
