Peter Hitchens, who writes for the “Mail on Sunday” and has a blog on the “Daily Mail” site, is not keen on Trident.

He thinks the problem with Trident is that its an American system being leased by the UK.

He would prefer that the UK have its own small nuclear deterrent under its own ownership.

Of course he does. All the money needed to fund the development, manufacture, manning, infrastructure, and deployment will eat up what little monies the UK devotes to defense - so never happen. He just wants to pretend that he is not a socialist pacifist who hates things military.
