OK, so, this might be the kind of thing you'd say, but that is also entirely plausible.

With Trident, either there will be no live usage, or there will be no UK left to do anything about the failure of the second strike weapons.
IIRC, this was a problem for Germany as well. It was the magnetic detonators on both sides .. ?

.. in the event of trident failures, you mean. The third possibility is that they do work, and there still is no UK, but at least there is less of everyone. So fun to think about /s
