Trident Doesn't Work.
A test firing of the UKs defense missile system in June was a failure. Apparently due to a cock-up with Google Maps, instead of targetting Russia, it actually hit Rusholme. There were no reports of any damage.
Interestingly, the misfire was hushed up and was not known to the majority of MPs who voted to renew it in July.
The Prime Minister refuses to say whether she knew of the apparent malfunction, when she voted. Asked several times, Mrs May refused to answer.
Should this information have been made known to MPs before they voted?
Would the result have been different if the truth was known?

He is a top-flight current affairs journalist, and his job to hold our politicians to account, and one very good to do that is to ask difficult questions. Perhaps Gove should have done the interviewing ?
It would have been easy for May to have answered the question, simply and honestly. Instead she chose to avoid the question and then look shifty into the bargain. She showed a complete lack of judgement and she appeared to be very unprepared for the rigour involved in the interview, showing us yet again, that she appears to have been promoted above her ability and pay grade. Its not the first time she has panicked in a live interview.
She will be asked this same question in Parliament soon so we will get answer one way or the other.

"It would have been easy for May to have answered the question, simply and honestly. Instead she chose to avoid the question and then look shifty into the bargain." - Think I agreed with that above, no reason why should couldn't answer the question. Marr is a well know pro Labour luvvie, he was previously in the "socialist campaign for a labour victory", He also described himself as a "Raving leftie" - Gawd have you seen him fawning over Saint Tony?
TTT....I don't accept what you say about Marr for one minute, but suppose, for the sake of argument, that I do !
If anybody else had asked the question, there is no indication that she would have reacted differently, and you have acknowledged that the question was quite correct, and that her reaction to the question was far from acceptable.
So why did you chose to cloud this issue with your remarks about Marr ?
Marr isn't the issue here, Mrs Maybe is. She has made herself look foolish, and I am sure she is far from that.

Andrew Marr was known as "Red Andy" at university. Anyway mikey, at least Mrs May had the balls to be interviewed about it unlike your hero here: http:// www.tel egraph. co.uk/n ews/113 40728/T ony-Bla ir-bid- to-avoi d-IRA-l etters- questio ns-is-i nsult-t o-victi ms.html
TTT....make your mind up !
When I said ""It would have been easy for May to have answered the question, simply and honestly. Instead she chose to avoid the question and then look shifty into the bargain." You agreed with me :::::
"Think I agreed with that above, no reason why should couldn't answer the question"
Now you are saying that Marr's question was just "politicking"
Its his job to ask awkward, probing questions.
