Trident move

-

IT IS now becoming apparent that Scotland will exit the United Kingdom and, since nationalis­m is more a matter of the heart than the head, we in the UK should start preparing for this event.

The SNP want to destroy the defence of the UK by removing Trident from Scotland – no doubt Mr Putin is delighted with the SNP. An alternativ­e location should now be researched so that the Trident submarine base can be closed in Scotland.

I suggest that the potential of Larne Harbour or Londonderr­y on Lough Swilly, where there was a great naval base in the Second World War, be now investigat­ed for the future Trident base. LORD KILCLOONEY Mullinure Armagh
