STRATEGIC DEFENCE REVIEW 19-10-10

[Gully]

I wrote an email to my MP this morning asking what we have to take on the MRA4 role.

I got a reply a few minutes ago saying he intends to ask on my behalf the Secretary of State why he believes we can do without it, [he warned it could be a while before he gets a reply!!] He also said that he believes given the over runs etc that the Government had no option.

I await with interest!!

Excellent - I was considering asking my (Tory) MP the same question!

My MP is Tory but then again they have been for as long as I can remember!

Just seen a HARRIER over WITTERING!

[Jack]

perhaps we should scrap the MOD and subcontract it all to our special friends? that would save a few quid.

[Old Rigger]

Well I was bored with normal telly so am watching Yes Prime Minister, Series 1, Episode 1 - The Grand Design and I think it is that government that is in now, it is all about the Trident and conventional forces
