I'm inclined to agree with James that Menwith Hill might have already been hit by conventional strikes earlier in the war making a nuclear strike unneccessary. That said, there are a number of other locations that are equally likely targets that don't appear on gdw's target list - if you look at the map there's a large gap between York and Glasgow, so the whole of the north east of England hasn't been targeted. That area includes several major sea ports, one major airport and one smaller one, and the Teesside oil refinery, which could process 280,000 barrels a day.
As Ramjam said earlier in the thread none of the Royal Navy's bases have been nuked either and neither was NATO's North Atlantic Maritime HQ which was based in Scotland.
