The SNP has called for an inquiry into the security of the UK's Trident nuclear weapons after allegations involving MP Joani Reid. Reid's husband, David Taylor, is under investigation for allegedly spying for China, which has raised concerns about national security. Reports indicate that Reid engaged in inappropriate behavior with two naval officers at the Faslane naval base, prompting fears that sensitive information could be compromised. The Ministry of Defence has stated there are no current security concerns, but the SNP argues that Reid's actions may have jeopardized the UK's nuclear fleet. Reid has denied any wrongdoing and is not under police investigation, while her husband remains under investigation. The SNP has urged the Intelligence and Security Committee to conduct a full inquiry into the matter. Reid's behavior and her husband's situation have sparked significant political debate, with calls for accountability from various political figures.
