Both these goodies are going to cost Britain quite a sum, if you were budgeting for the UK and had to pick just one, which one would it be?

This is a good question, and I have given it a lot of thought.
It is my opinion that both these items should not take any priority over the welfare of our country. If our health service was fully funded, emergency services fully funded, care and help for all local communities was taken care of, then if money was left over, I would have to go for the Olympics.
At least this is bringing people together, and not threatening others to do as we want them to do.

,On the basis that if you're going to build something then you might as well use it, I would take a slight preference for the Olympics. At least it will leave something behind which might benefit some Londoners (though no-one else at all). But then we knew all along that the rest of the country. though better able to host it, would not get a serious look in.
Trident would only leave a big hole in the ground.

In answer to this question a. There both going to be over budget. b. Trident for the simple reason that security comes first before stability in this ' I must have that nuclear bomb at all costs 'coz I wanna be a superpower says country with no free elections and abject poverty.
c.Saying that countries (which is most if not all) with pores borders and virtually no nuclear and biological detection equipment at every street corner are open to terrorist attacks.
If thinking in this case it is better to have limited nuclear weapons and spend the rest on the former.

the Olympics will cost us a fortune just so Blair could look good for a few minutes, his guards will keep him safe but the rest of us will have the constant threat of Muslim violence and exorbitant costs.
Trident would get my vote between the two but there are better ways to spend tax-payers money

Neither, the money would be better spent on health or education.
