    It's a mistake to get rid of Faslane.

    Keep it. Keep what it gives to local economy. Then, we either pay our share of it's upkeep, or we say the Nigels can keep it there as long as they pay us for their base on our soil.

    All this phoney baloney anti-nuke bullshite for the sake of being anti-nuke makes me ****in laff.

    Here's an analogy fur ye:

    A bunch of guys each have a gun. Each can't fire first at the risk of one or more of the others firing back. So, one of the guys says this is pointless. We all have weapons we dare not use. Why don't we disarm these weapons? They all agree, in principle, it's a good thing.

    What happens next?

    The last **** with a gun shoots the others.

    Of course not but I wouldn't rule out the Yanks mistaking Glasgow for Pyong Yang.

    It makes perfect sense to keep Trident at Faslane. The Yanks have bases in countries all over the world and they create lots of jobs. As Gambol says we simply bill the UK (or what's left) for the privilege of keeping them here.

    There's nowhere else in Britain that has the infrastructure to base them, so even if we do get a Yes vote they won't be leaving anytime soon, i'd say at least 5 years to locate another suitable base and get it built, to be honest it could take a decade. Them's the facts.

    I wish, it would cost a pretty penny, IF the location actually exists.

    This anti-nuke stance for no other reason than "ban the bomb" is decades out of date, economically bankrupt, and politically naive.
