I have been. Probably still am tbh though it really depends on your POV at this stage admittedly.

 

I reckon the interconnectedness of nations as a consequence of globalisation is a more important factor in resolving stuff like this than possessing nukes. Ukraine doesn't have nukes and we wouldn't launch at Russia if he fired on them IMO, so us having trident hasn't been worth anything so far in this conflict.

 

Putin is bringing nukes into the conversation because he has no other response to the sanctions. 

 

That said, this is a really serious test of my worldview on that front so it'll be interesting to see where we end up. I think the proof that trident is helping us would actually be if we were to get involved in a ground war to help Ukraine. At that point you could make a convincing argument that nukes are keeping us from being nuked. Until then I'm not sure they're part of the equation yet.

 

I might be wrong though and while this whole thing is tragic, I suspect I'll be changing my view on several things as a result of it.

Green energy is a threat to Putin's attempts to control and influence the West, Farage is openly a Russian stooge, so this had an inevitability to it. He's a traitor and the enemy within.
