Actually, the UK nuclear stockpile isn't enough of a deterrent to prevent wars.

If you haven't read the news lately, North Korea attacked a South Korean warship and sunk it. They are trying to start a war, despite the allies (everyone but NK in this case) having plenty of deterrent. When you have nothing left to lose, you will do anything to go out with a bang, it seems.

That's why I never trusted Kim Jong Il with nukes in the first place.  He's a crazy enough guy that he'd launch Nukes at Japan before he died just to be remembered as the guy who nuked Japan.
