No need to rush to judgement on Trident - Campbell

8.38.39pm GMT Mon 4th Dec 2006

Commenting ahead of the publication of the Government's white paper on the future of Trident, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, Menzies Campbell, said "There is no need to rush to judgement on a replacement for Trident.

"The decision can be delayed, as the Defence Select Committee has already concluded.

"We can maintain the present system with half the number of warheads and still provide the necessary insurance for Britain's security, while making a real contribution to the cause of multilateral disarmament."
