    All completely irrelevant. We are discussing a country that couldn't even defend its right to fish the seas by which it is surrounded!

    QUOTE.. "They fight for pride and each other, not for a cause or a prime minister." The government does not know how fortunate it is

    Lesson #1 as a baby RO on my first trip at sea: "One hand for the ship, one hand for yourself".

    It says a lot to me that such comments are appearing in the Grauniad - for a left-leaning newspaper to be saying the Defence establishment is in crisis then things must be bad. How blind can Government be?
