UK {home to Islamic fundamentalists} has plutonium for 17,000 bombs (BBC)

The UK has built up a stockpile of 100 tonnes of plutonium - enough to make 17,000 nuclear bombs, according to a Royal Society report.

The plutonium mainly comes from reprocessed spent uranium fuel from the country's nuclear power plants.

The society warns that it could be made into "a crude nuclear bomb" by a terror group, and is calling for a strategy for its long-term use or disposal.

The society says it first highlighted the problem nine years ago.

And it warns that nothing has been done and that the size of the UK plutonium stockpile has doubled in that time.

The UK is currently scheduled to shut down most of its reactors by 2023. The question of building new reactors is a topic of heated debate -- I wouldn't even try to predict the outcome at this point. Of course, we'll probably bomb them before then, rendering the whole thing moot.
