The whole thing is a bloody disgrace,making serving sailors redundent !! As an ex squaddie i really feel for these fellas.
The whole spending review is awful, we could'nt take back the falklands now if we needed too.
And how can the Royal Navy not have a carrier ?! And the fact that when we get our two new carriers one will be mothballed straight away is a bloody farce.
The coalition is ruining our forces!
Rant over
