You're right! The deterrent argument is old hat and has been 'doing the rounds' for years. Britain is inherently a war-mongering nation that also promotes arms deals with every Tom, Dick, Saudi Arabia and Israel and has been doing it for centuries!!! 
The arms dealers are the biggest winners and they are ultimately the providers of all sorts of weapons/ordnance that kill innocent people. That includes WMDs, which are absolutely immoral and should be removed from Scottish soil as a matter of course. If there's such strong English support and opinion for the use of a US inspired deadly nuclear weapon, let them deliver it in their own country and keep it well away from our heavily populated regions in Scotland! I think the Scottish govt is absolutely right to ask for it's removal and that policy is in line with general Scottish public opinion on the issue.
