US support to maintain UK’s nuclear arsenal is in doubt, experts say.
Calls by diplomats and analysts urging focus on European cooperation to replace Trident have been joined by the former UK foreign secretary Sir Malcolm Rifkind, who initiated talks in the 90s between the UK and France on nuclear weapons cooperation.
But working with European states to replace it will be costly and take time.
There's doubt about US support, they say
For UK's nuclear arsenal to stay
Experts fear it may wane
In this pact, might there be strain?
Only time will reveal the fateful play

Mia, this is the first time you will spend several days being ridden by someone else.
Behave and help the kid get the top tier licence.
Cya Monday my love

#UK urged to prepare for Donald #Trump halting #Trident partnership

Can Europe build a credible nuclear deterrent without US support?
France and the UK, Europe's only two nuclear-armed powers, have scaled back their forces since the end of the Cold War, but they are now being called upon to step up.
Mia, I'm exactly like you. In need of some maintenance and I could eat something right now. 
Fellowship of the motorcycle's, have your bikes ready because the weekend is coming and you should go for a #motorcycle ride.
‘Post #Trump, will atlanticism ever again be a rational policy for a UK government? Will Europe itself be a stable partner?
And what of #Trident? With the US pursuing its self interests without hesitation, does it make sense for the UK to rely on a #nuclear capability dependent upon it? What use is a weapon system that could be switched off, repurposed or used as leverage by an American administration with its own agenda?’
Not many brave enough to say this today…but it needs to be said.
Few things make me happy in the morning, riding Mia is one of them. The sound echoing in an empty road, the curves done in a faster way, the cold air hitting the face. Just perfect 
I wish you have something in your life that makes you feel like that. Simply happy and care free.
Happy Friday, have a nice weekend.
Mia, have a nice weekend of rest, prepare yourself for next week to be rainy. Sleep tight luv.
Mia, I know. We all feel a bit low on energy today. Can I ask just a little more effort?
Let's Ride!
May you find a parter that waits for you late on a Friday, even when it rains.
Have a nice weekend, specially if you are a rider.
Mia, I know you are due for a total cleaning. Promise it will happen soon, but let me tell that you look beautiful anyway 
@jeff I may have been right that it was related to retraction. I don’t really understand why, but reducing it from 0.8mm to 0.4mm appears to have done wonders. This was a default settings benchy (56 minutes). Attempting a speed benchy now. #3dprinting #Trident #Voron
(Edited retraction above from 0.3 to 0.4mm as I just rechecked the settings I used)
“When one in four children in Scotland live in poverty it is obscene to be spending so much money every day for the next thirty years on weapons of mass destruction when that money could instead be invested in Scotland’s future.”
Who had the stupid idea of leaving Mia behind and bring Gazoo?
I hate cars!
