TRIDENT must be scrapped, the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) said today as it branded two consecutive missile test failures a “colossal waste of public money.”
The government admitted an “anomaly” had occurred during an exercise off the coast of Florida, United States, on January 30.
It is the second misfiring in a row, with a test launch of a Trident missile by the Royal Navy off the coast of the US in June 2016 also reported to have been a failure.
