I should also point out, as a Brit, that there is absolutely nothing stopping Blair firing nukes off at anyone he likes. It is one of the most overlooked and scary aspects of Prime Ministerial power - the authorisation for nucleur missiles to be fired comes straight from Blair with no consitutional checks holding him back. And there is nothing in place to reprimand him if he does with the exception of Parliament which he shows complete contempt for. As Skunk says: Sleep Tight guys!
