How f**ked would you be

If they dropped a nuke near you

Can't think of a target near enough to cause any immediate issues. Annan nuclear power station has been demolished, don't think there's much going on at the artillery testing range at Kirkcudbright since they stopped testing DU shells pre Iraq and the Military place at Longtown has been pretty much abandoned, even the Observer Corp has been disbanded. Carlisle would be as close as gets and I don't think they'd waste missiles on there. Biggest issue would a nuclear winter if they went full on, by the end of that we'd all be f#cked.

Liverpool docks ten miles away as the death rays fly. Camell Laird yard three or four miles and there are always some RN ships there.

25 miles North of London with space and defence research big boys in town
Basically fucked really!

[Jock42]

I doubt Barry Buddon would be high on anyone's list and they would probably assume they've already nuked Dundee.

W-88 dropped on Swansea would get rid of those Jak bastards nicely, whilst I'd hear the bang...

Rather a bit I would think. We live on a ridge about 6km in a straight line from RAAF Amberley airbase - home to superhornets, growlers, globemasters and KC 30 tankers - so rather worth bombing if things get seriously ugly.

Nearest and dearest target would be Manchester but more likely blowback from rebellious Stoke would do for us.

Porton Down just a few miles away....We're screwed

Remember reading that just 10 strategically placed large detonations would be enough to f**k the entire UK either through blast or radiation/fallout rendering the UK basically uninhabitable. Would rather just be right underneath one and get vaporized ASAP!

Living about 15 miles from Birmingham it’s a moot point with pros and cons.

The Death Star aka New Street Station, will deflect the blast back into the sky shirley

[Insane_Homer]

depending on how accurate the missiles target the center of London and whether I'm at work at the time: My death would vary from instant evaporation too enough time to realise I'm about to die soon, painfully.

I'd feel more sorry for the survivors if there's a nuclear war to be honest.

If they nuked Stoke, think of the millions of pounds of improvements it would do.

They wouldn't survive long. Massive global famine would reduce the population by somehwere in the region of 70% for a small nuclear engagement and 98-99% for a widespread nuclear war.

Assume those percentages are just the UK.

I imagine large swathes of Africa will remain untouched by WW3.

No, global.

Ebbw Vale has been fucked since the èighties. A nuclear bomb wouldn't change much.

I had a night out there in 1991 and it was and stoll is a damn sight more invested in than where I am from.
