If you ever lived in Britain you will realise that they will wait for it to blow up and then worry about making sure it never happens again, whilst doing absolutely nothing about it. The government is good at sitting on it's collective lazy arse and doing nothing.

Yeah, but this is London.  They'll probably give them a £120 million lottery grant to remove it and build an opera house or something.

Actually, that's more or less what they are trying to do, which is decentralise the government. Good idea if you ask me, not for the anti-terror factor, but simply to make the government wake up and realise the the UK is bigger than London ;)

Why don't they disconnect the millenium dome, float it down river and then set this thing off to launch it - Project Orion style - into space?

Hang on a sec. I live in Dartford. That would be a bad idea :D

I thought Manchester was Britain's second city ? :p :p

Does that mean we (Manchester that is) inherit Capital status if all the cockneys go boom ? Atleast there'll be plenty of space for all those Houses the rest of the country's paying for...(bloody southerners)

Heh, I just wish I could afford somewhere less pokey, with so many houses down here, you would think they would charge less than 100K for a one-bedroom flat! :(

Birmingham is bigger but Manchester is more important to anyone in England apart from brummies so it probably would be Manchester.

Capital cities aren't always chosen just on size.

You know, maybe the reason no-one in government is concerned is because they've put it under surveillance, and plan on evacuating if it makes any sudden moves. :p

I still want to know why something that dangerous was allowed to sit for 60 years.

even though there's a huge sign which says "Danger! Explosives! Do not dive in this wreck!!"

they salvaged all they could during the 60s IIRC
