The Scottish National Party (SNP) is particularly vociferous in its opposition to Trident. The UK's nuclear warheads are stored and loaded onto Trident submarines at the high-security Royal Naval Armaments Depot at Coulport and Faslane-on-Clyde near Glasgow. With the prospect of a Labour government that might reach a deal with the SNP to get rid of Trident, public debate about Britain's nuclear capabilities is raging.
