Oh OK, so it’s lucky timing.
Today’s unveiling of the Trident white paper (see our sort-of-advanced warning here) represents something of a timing coup for liberal think-tank CentreForum, for this evening they meet in Parliament for a long-planned discussion on… you guessed it… Trident.

Though the conspiracy theory is flattering, our good fortune on this one merely represents some good forward diary work a few months ago about what issues would be topical.
The fact that we managed to get our trident event (http://www.centreforum.org/events.htm) to coincide exactly with the White Paper was a little more fortuitous than even good planning allows.
