(MENAFN) Theresa May says she has "absolute faith" in the UK's nuclear weapons system despite reports that an unarmed missile went off course during a test.
The Sunday Times says the missile, fired in June, veered off course, weeks before a crucial Commons vote on Trident's future.
Mrs May repeatedly refused to say if she knew about the misfire ahead of the vote.
Nicola Sturgeon said it was a "hugely serious issue".
