Aircraft carriers' costs soar £1bn 09:05am on 30 Jun 2009 I see stanblogger has completely missed the point as to why we need the carriers. Defence has been cut year on year while other sectors grow fat.

Why don't we leave defence alone for a change? As for the service infighting I agree they need to stop. FRES is all but doomed anyway. If any service needs money then it is the Navy as that has been the easiest target. As for the price rise, most people and politicians who are against the carriers won't see the bit about it being due to reprofiling, rather than actual costs.
Who's watching you? (1) 5:07pm on 09 Feb 2009 The biggest fear for me is that the power to decide who could possibly have access to all the surveillance data or decide on monitoring someone is being devolved further and further down the command chain. No longer does it seem to be a judge or high court official who can order and monitor surveillance ops but your local council worker, who (and I am making a generalisation) is likely to be less educated and more likely to use it for vengeful means should they have a falling out with someone in their town....
Too 'European' 09:41am on 03 Nov 2008 I love how there is still denial from some that Obama IS American.

BTW should McCain win, how much do you think it will cost me to get a bombshelter put under my back garden?
