Lord Truscott questioned the idea that a thermonuclear war with Russia would be an ”unwelcome outcome”

“If we were still in the city we wouldn’t appreciate this as much.”

 In a written question submitted by Lord Truscott in December, he asked: “Further to the remarks by Baroness Goldie on 29 November (HL Deb, col 1130), what are their reasons for believing that a thermonuclear war with Russia would be an ‘unwelcome outcome’?”

The question has now gone viral on social media after resurfacing amid reports of a potential Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Reassuringly, Goldie was steadfast in her reply. “It is difficult to envisage any scenario in which war, whether accidental, thermonuclear or otherwise, and irrespective of which other parties may be involved, would be a welcome outcome,” came the curt response.
