Faslane Naval Base, situated on the Gare Loch, and the RN Armaments Depot Coulport on Loch Long, are the primary components of HMNB Clyde. The naval shore establishment at Faslane is HMS Neptune, Naval personnel appointed to the base who do not belong to a seagoing vessel make up Ship's Company. Both the Gare Loch and Loch Long are sea lochs extending northwards from the Firth of Clyde. The base serves as home base to Britain's fleet of Vanguard-class nuclear-powered and nuclear-armed submarines, as well as conventionally armed nuclear-powered submarines, supported by the Fleet Protection Group Royal Marines.
Successive governments have regarded Britain's nuclear deterrent as essential to our security and standing in the world.
But from the very beginning their presence has also attracted protesters, who say that if the weapons were ever used they would lead to nuclear annihilation.
Sky's Defence Correspondent Alistair Bunkall has been on board one of the submarines.

PM jokes with crew at HM Naval Base Clyde in Scotland
Mr Johnson was given a Royal Navy 'foulie' jacket emblazoned with 'Prime Minister' as a gift by the Ministry of Defence as he visited Faslane Naval Base in Scotland today (left). It echoes a coat worn by US president Donald Trump (right in 2017) and his predecessors, who were each presented with a green US Navy flight jacket with their name and 'Commander-in-Chief' written on it. The wet weather gear came in useful on his visit to the west coast home of the nuclear submarine fleet as part of a visit to Scotland to discuss Brexit and the Union.

US, UK, France Dock Nuke Submarines In Scotland l NATO's Clear Message To Putin Amid Ukraine War?
The nuclear-powered submarines of three western powers including the US, UK and France have docked in Scotland’s naval base HMNB Clyde. The confluence of nuclear-submarines in Scotland come amid heightened tensions between NATO and Russia over Ukraine.
While the gathering of NATO submarines could be coincidental, it comes amid heightened tension with Russia. Adding to the speculation is the fact that there is no official submarine drill scheduled in Clyde. All three countries have appeared secretive about the movement of their nuclear submarines to Scotland.

Living At Faslane Peace Camp | Into It
Iona has been living at Faslane peace camp since May last year and she explains how she made that decision and what it means to her. Iona originally visited Faslane for research purposes, but realised she wanted to be an active part of the commune. Iona says: "When we think about nuclear weapons and the devastation they can create our only points of reference are the devastations at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I don't think we can wrap our heads around it"
