.....what would you do in this situation?
ok, you are the chief of defense staff, the prime minister is dead, you are in the nuclear bunker at northwood. The russians have launched nuclear weapons which have wiped out 30 million people in the United Kingdom. the chief air marshall turns to you and says: "what do we do?"
what would you do?

I aim our own ICBM's not at Russian population centers, but at Russian, Middle eastern, South American and other oil fields/related infrastructure including ours on the north sea, push the button and laugh.
Nuke the State of Israel, then use the rest of the arsenal to target Russia's ICBM sites.

This. The people who made the decision to push the button in the first place will most likely be tucked away in an underground bunker anyway.
Remove the key and flush it down the toilet while the human race still stands a chance at recovery.

i would not push the button. think about it, if you retaliate the game is over. i think the goal of the game is not to win, but to keep playing. so i would make it so that we could keep on playing, or atleast someone could keep on playing. what good would it do anyone to kill all of them off, jus cause they killed most of us off?

And let the Russians, who nuked everything I or anyone I know ever cared about into oblivion, carry on as a world power capable of doing it yet again?
Yeah, fuck that. I'd push the button. You can't be nuked off the map and expect not to retaliate. That was the only assurance in the MAD doctrine that was supposed to prevent this sort of exchange in the first place.
If you don't retaliate then it sets a bad precedence for MAD and emboldens the enemy since they just fucked your shit all up without retaliation.
Preferably there would be an option that would fuck up the enemy without causing massive ecological damage and global effects.

The only way to win that game is not to play.
Do you think that the Russians want war?
These are the parents of children who died in the last one
Do you think that it's possible, knowing their past
That they'd ever consider repeating the last
When 20 million were slaughtered by Nazi invasion?
They died fighting on our side, you know,
In a fight to defend humankind
Against Nazi terror and hatred
In the name of humanity, bitterly torn
In the name of our children as yet to be born
Before we do that which can never be undone I beg of you
Think, think again, and again and again and again and again
Do you think that the Russians want war?
They're the sons and the daughters of parents who died in the last one
Do you think that they'd want to go through that again
The destruction, the bloodshed, the suffering and pain?
In the second world war out of every three dead one was Russian
If we try with all of our power
Can we not find a way
To peacefully settle our difference?
In the name of humanity, bitterly torn
In the name of our children as yet to be born
Before we do that which can never be undone I beg of you
Think, think again, and again and again and again and again
Do you think that the Russians want war?
Will the voice of insanity lead you to total destruction?
Will you stumble to death as though you were blind?
Will you cause the destruction of all humankind?
Will you die because you don't like their political system?
There will be no survivors you know
No one left to scream in the night
And condemn our stupidity

He would sit there, reading a book about a duck to a bunch of children with a frightened expression on his face like an unintelligent limp dick cowardly shell of a man.
Oh, what would I do? I was thinking of someone else.
The first thing I would do is board Airforce one and make myway to a secure location. While in route I would do all of the following.
I would institute martial law, and put military on the highest possible state of readiness.
I would verfiy where the nukes ACTUALLY came from.
Whever they came from.....
I would launch a counterstrike on all remaining silos, and on three of the largest cities. I would contact the head of NSA, CIA, and FBI to brief me on possible locations of nuclear fall out bunkers, the government officials may be in and deploy tactical bunker busting nukes at those locations.
I would have my cabinet call the closest and most powerful neighbors of said country to invade the country on our behalf, and in their best interest as well, while I addressed the world, in a riveting speech about the potential for apocolypse unless we set aside our differences and come together, for the sake of humankind.
I would begin seeing about instituting the draft, and I would brief my generals to begin making battle plans to enter and conquer the offending nation.
I would contact whomever may be in charge in England and get them set up with my cabinet and ambassadors from neighboring countries to figure out how best to get refugees supplies and treatment, probably relocated as well, and to minimize fallout.
Lastly I would personally contact whomever might be left in charge of said country and demand immediate unconditional surrender.

Press the button, and kill millions of people? no way.
The attack was probably made by some fuckin asshole, or a group of fuckin assholes.
I'd assasinate the motherfuckers, and reveal their intentions to their country and the world.
but this may seem outside of the given scenario of the first post...
Fat chance that would happen anyway, given all of the anti-missile systems.

How could that possibly help anything?

If I were in the UK, I'd get help from the US. Ship some boys off to Iraq. (not alot, but enough to have some tucked away incase SHTF.
If it was Russia alone attacking, I'd say to all countries local to Russia "Hey, were gonna get buttfux here anyways, so if you don't give us a hand here were gonna fire some large atomic explosives in your area... Were dammed if we do and dammed if we don't, so it's your call."
Hopefully they will comply. If they don't, they will claim money from our country for war costs and the like. This with for 1 not allow for Russia to gain as much, and 2, if we're lucky may cause squabble among the other countries, and they'll begin to squabble amongst themselves.
Then we rebuild in Iraq, amass some forces, go take back the UK, pwn everyone else. Take all their money, throw a big party in the Russian equivalent to the White House. Leave without offering to clean up. Steal their Xbox 360 on your way out the door.

To kill potential draft recruits, food processing plants, power and communication grids, seriously injure production capabilities, not to mention most transportation systems (air travel, roads, interstates, bridges, and railway stations) as well as media stations will be found in major cities.
Cripple their economy, demoralize the enemy, and lastly eye for an eye.

They hit you, and killed a bunch of your people. Hit them, kill them.
If you don't fight back quickly and put up an aggressive posture either the original guys who attacked you will either fire again or invade and conquer you. If that doesn't happen an opportunistic neighbouring country might do the same.

Ok, so basically, we got china, france, india, iss-rael, pakistan, russia, the UK and us...with nukes. we got about 2600 more than anybody else. whatever.
anyway, one day, we decide that those chinese sons of bitches are going down. so we launch a nuke at china. while its on its way, china's like "shit! shit! who the fuck is shooting at us"
"oh well, fire the missiles!"
then france is like "shit guuuuys, look at ze missiles, they are coming! fire our shit!"
"but im le tired"
"well, have a nap"
"THEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!"

No seriously....
I would have 3 independent polling groups begin a poll on how many Americans support a nuclear counter-strike.
I would then launch exploratory investigative committees into what kind of support I can find in the house for such and attack, and how this will impact my re-election chances. The committees will rely on the aforementioned polling data.
I would then hire several PR people to handle the media, and try to give out as little information as to my leanings, until the poll results are in, and I already know how the people feel. At which point the PR people will hint that I too am leaning that way, but will do so in a non-commital fashion, of course.
I will then contact my party leaders and find out how this impacts other democratic national and local elections, and also find out if any of my parties campaign donors are in the offending nation, how many and the bottom dollar amount my party will lose if I vaporize the nation. I would hold 5,000 dollar a plate fund raising parties to make up this possible loss of campaign revenue.
After all of this, I would consult my staff (each of whom would like to launch their own committees for various reasons) and at the end of say 6 months to a year (depending upon election cycle) we would reach a desicion.......
Which we would then run by our military leaders, who would then further advise us based on the current situation on the ground, in which consultants would be hired to advise of the economic impact.
Given this new information, and how much time had past, it is clearly time for me to launch 3 indpendant polling groups to begin a poll on how many Americans still support a nuclear counter-strike....
Rinse, repeat.
Until I am out of office and can hand the problem to the next president. Who will have to launch committees, pollsters, and hire consultants.
