Minister rebuffs nuclear sub claims

摘要

A whistleblower's concerns about safety on HMS Victorious, one of the four vessels armed with the Trident missile system that make up Britain's nuclear deterrent, were "either factually incorrect or the result of mis- or partial understanding", according to Michael Fallon, secretary of state for defence. Able Seaman William McNeilly published his allegations on 11 May on the WikiLeaks website in a dossier entitled The Nuclear Secrets.
