These are military systems and that really should have some sway on decisions like that!
And just to reassure those of a nervous disposition; there are plenty of other targets in the UK. The MoD ammunition facility at Kineton is the largest in NW Europe and is reputed to store nuclear depth charges and battlefield warheads alongside more conventional materiel.
Kineton's location in the south Midlands positions it nicely to send a plume of radioactivity across much of England in the event of intercontinental unpleasantness. I lived only a few miles from Kineton for about five years. Far from being jittery peace-niks, nobody in the locale seemed to give it a second thought.

BAE build them in Barrow, where I work. It's not the most densely populated area but it's still a town of 60 000 people or so, with more in the vicinity and at least two nuclear reactors in the factory at any one time. They distribute iodine pills in case of an emergency, and helpful instructions like 'shut the windows'.
