Ainsworth slams Trident position
Updated on 17 April 2010
Defence Secretary Bob Ainsworth has attacked as "ridiculous" the Liberal Democrats' position over Trident.
Mr Ainsworth claimed the party's policy of saying no to a like-for-like replacement of the nuclear missile system would leave Britain with a "cheap and ineffective" deterrent.
His comments came as the spotlight turned more sharply on Liberal Democrat policies following Nick Clegg's widely praised performance in the first party leaders' debate.
