Immediately?, Perhaps not, but we will be on a serious war footing and experiencing a major challenge to our very existence as a nation. I can see the situation deteriorating very, very rapidly, and no one to my knowledge has ruled out a first strike. That carrier is not a hunk of steel, it is a populated area of the UK that happens to be afloat.
