Trident whistleblower: the MoD are brainwashing public over nuclear safety

Source: Herald Scotland

The Trident whistleblower, William McNeilly, has accused the Ministry of Defence (MoD) of trying to "brainwash" the public into believing that nuclear weapons are safe.

In a new message to the public, he says that people are being deceived about the security of Trident nuclear warheads carried by submarines based at Faslane and Coulport on the Clyde. A terrorist attack is highly likely, he claims.

"You were lied to about nuclear weapons in Iraq, and now you're being lied to about how safe and secure the weapons are on your homeland," he said.
