No I haven't. But it is now on my reading list.

Corbyn does not want a deterrent, his view may (I hope not) prevail. He has ruled out the uncertainty. In which case the continued deployment of a deterrent has no point and will not happen, this is political. In which case any discussion of it's use would be pointless. When CDS commented on Corbyn's stance he commented on labour party policy (to retain the deterrent) and Corbyn's suitability as leader of that party and potential Prime Minister, that is political. That is why his comments in my opinion were out of order. Of course they and their implications were a political delight to the Conservative Party, hence no public reprimand.
