Now that Trident is being renewed can we have a poll on what option people would choose if they were PM and the government was completely destroyed in a nuclear attack?
New PM's have to write letters to the four captains of the Trident subs with instructions on how to retaliate.
Options:
1. To retaliate.
2. To do nothing.
3. To place the submarine under the control of an ally - specifically the United States Navy or Royal Australian Navy.
4. To act according to how the Captain deems best.
