The UK’s strategic defence review plans to normalise nuclear weapons. Don’t believe the PR hype: they are immoral, irrational and catastrophic, says Guardian foreign affairs commentator Simon Tisdall
Yes they’re civilians. Not just bankers (although I don’t think bankers deserve death just because someone on the internet doesn’t like them). There will be cleaners, bus drivers, shop workers, etc, and you want to murder them all with a nuclear bomb.
Look, it’s all love. I don’t want to murder them with my nuclear bomb that I have (my possession of which must be what’s warranting this level of concern from you) I just recognize that for our species to have a future on this planet they’re all gonna need to either be put in prison until they can be taught to value human life, or else be killed.
As for the hypothetical harm to the hypothetical civilians in the hypothetical scenario where I hypothetically have a nuclear bomb, I hope you have the same level of outrage about the real civilians in Gaza that the RAF has provided over 50% of the reconnaissance overflights for, to help Israel more efficiently massacre them using drones built with UK components.

Cleaners and bus drivers who work in the City of London? Even if you just mean bankers, are they as bad as rapists and murderers? I don’t love bankers but I don’t think that working for a bank means you need to be imprisoned or killed.

Well I think Israel should stop its bombings of Gaza. You’re changing the subject though. It’s completely possible for me to disagree with Israel’s actions in Gaza, while also disagreeing with the idea of nuking the City of London.
Unlike that person’s imaginary nukes, you are building real actual nukes and threatening civilians with them. And if they definitely weren’t threatening civilians they wouldn’t serve their purpose as a deterrent so there would be no point building them.
It would be great to live in a world without nukes. But as it stands, quite a few countries have nukes. If the UK gave up its nukes then Russia or China could come along and take over the UK. “Surrender or we’ll nuke you.”
Also ‘civilians’ lmao the denizens of London’s financial district are among the vilest ghouls to ever walk the Earth
