How the intelligence community worries about Jeremy Corbyn

Behind the scenes in Whitehall where the civil service estabishment lives and breathes and plots our future, there are super senior officials whispering in dark corners about the worst scenario facing this country - in their iew and most people's view: the arrival in Number 10 Downing Street of Jeremy Corbyn, furiously socialist left winger and his motley crew of Marxists and Leninists. The implications of having such extreme left wingers taking charge of this country are anathema to these individuals and I'm sure they are discussing what they are going to do and how they're going to confront such a prospect if it happens. For example what will a Corbyn government do with the UK's four nuclear deterrent ballistic missile submarines, will ministers and their political advisers respect the top secret intelligence that will come their way, much of it from the US, how will they respond when Washington asks for the UK's support for going to war with North Korea/Iran/? etc etc? There are some secrets that are so secret hardly anyone knows about them. Could Corbyn and co ever be trusted to have knowledge of them? A previous Labour Government, under James Callaghan, approved a multi-million pound secret nuclear warhead programme to boost the killing power of the then Polaris ballistic missile submarines. It was called the Chevaline pogramme. Most of the Callaghan cabinet knew nothing about it and Parliament was kept in the dark till many years later. Could a Corbyn government ever consider doing anything like that on the grounds that the security of the country's survival was deemed to be at stake? No, Corbyn and his Marxist advisers would not because fundamentally they don't believe in the nuclear deterrent, not for Britain anyway. So the intelligence and security mandarins in Whitehall are bound to be going over all these sort of scenarios, trying to come up with answers that will mean the UK's safety remains in the hands of the establishment and not the Marxist ideologists. There must be some scary plotting going on. But above all they are all walking around with their fingers crossed, praying that Boris wins.
