Cool or what. Football is more important than defence. Without defence, Pittodrie will host beheadings, eventually. Complacency, a precursor to disaster. Some of us live in an adult world, where bad things happen.

Thats why the missiles are tested to make sure they work and to iron out any faults, I know its a hell of a lot of money but we want to sleep safe in our beds.

It doesnt make me sleep any easier. I know you havent specifically used this term, but calling these weapons a a deterrent is a way to keep the public believing in the myth that it is such. It wasn't a deterrent when JFK blockaded Cuba and that was likely the greatest ever risk of nuclear confrontation. Lets not forget, the most powerful nation in the world keeps using this deterrent term, while at the same time being the only one to use such weapons in warfare and one of the countries closest to being part of a full on nuclear war.
You're right though, it is a lot of money and a bloody waste of money too. The likes of you and I will never benefit from the use of these weapons.
