The Telegraph(@Telegraph):"Much has been made this week of three of the Royal Navy’s four Vanguard-class ballistic missile submarines being at sea at the same time" says Tom Sharpe. "Depending on what you read, it was a signal to Moscow, a heightened alert or a sign that something had gone wrong. It was none of these. It was a programming matter, plain and simple. Not messaging, not deterrent effect and definitely not escalation" ⤵️
