This is a big change compared to 2010 when the position was to scrap Trident. It’s always been the thing I hoped didn’t happen when voting for LibDems. “Sir Ed will tell the conference: "Britain's nuclear deterrent must be genuinely, verifiably ours – not dependent on Trump or whoever his successor may be. Trump has proven we can't rely on America as a dependable ally. "As the UK now prepares to replace Trident in the 2040s, we should make the decision now to spend the billions required over the next two decades here in the UK, not in the US.” #UKPolitics
