I’d like to nominate Dr Rebecca Johnson of the Green party after hearing her on the radio advocating against the replacing of Trident submarines.

With an almost religious fervour she breathlessly defends her position by stating that no country would dare to use nuclear weapons against us because we have an army and they’d get hurt. She also says that universal disarmament will happen anyway before we’ve finished building these subs, so it will all be a waste of money.

It’s not only crackpots like Putin and Kim Jong-un we’ve got to worry about, it’s our own home-grown loonies as well.
