Similar to 'the terrorists are coming', 'the East is going to attack us' is overexaggerated. We'll survive.

I'm not saying it is good but the working class/middle class hold such sensibilities that they won't interpret these things as good things. We need to get out of the red and into the blue (see what I did there?) and these are necessary paving stones for the future.
If we ever did get attacked here somehow I don't see what use having planes on a boat will do, seems like it might be a better idea to have them here ready for defensive purposes, or if we really need to have them out in other countries I'm fairly sure we're still capable of building an airbase, it's not only the Polish who can do manual labour
They'll be known for trying to wipe out the national debt. They've got a hard job, they're not gonna be popular and quite frankly they've got massive ******** since both of them will likely be voted out in favour of Labour now, because things wern't as bad with Labour in terms of debt... but thats only because they hid it all for this government. I guess its the way you wanna look at it, I think they're doing a mint job trying to wipe out the debt.Quote:

Jut heard about all the cuts. All I'm saying is if countries like Argentina wanted to re take islands such as the Falklands we wouldn't be able to diddly **** about it.
You keep clinging to that belief whilst the rest of the world wakes up. Germany has already started. They don't want to integrate with us, they just want free land and resources.Quote:

Clappity clap tories what else are we going to bring down now?
I dont honestly think were needing a large military at this moment, worlds not in bad shape in terms of war, minus afghanistan and terrorists, but still we dont really need a sea boat for it. If war was to start I honestly think we'd get loads in a matter of months so we can go kick ass.
