I think anyone going in an underground tunnel is braver than me in the first place, those things scare the life out of me. (Under water that is) Indeed they are. But just show it for what it is - a road from England to Northern Ireland. Don't dress it up by putting something in from Stranraer at a cost of multiple, multiple £billions. It's a total joke anyway. If that ever gets started, people in govt will need to be sectioned for all our safety. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 (edited) The media utterly agog with excitement as BJ is just about to announce to the house the govt's roadmap for schools returning, and some kind of cautious easing of lockdown restrictions. This despite the fact, they've been clearly pretty well briefed as to what exactly BJ is going to say. Westminster Politics is a fucking charade.

San Starko Rover Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 That's a lot of fishery protection boats to keep British fish happy... Aye right. Apparently our defence procurement is along the lines of a kid in a sweet shop and the UK gets ripped off/buys a lot of useless crap. I'm always intrigued by seeing miserable looking squaddies driving up the motorway in army lorries that look as if they were purchased when Harold Wilson was PM and the Beatles were together.That’s because the UK only buys vanity projects for photo opportunities instead of the equipment the Armed Forces actually need. They might have shiney new planes, tanks and ships but their personal equipment, accommodation and general infer-structure has been allowed to deteriorate with either not being replaced and refurbished or simply being replaced by lower quality equipment. There’s loads of defence spending but it rarely in the areas the actual guys in the jobs need it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK actually wastes an absolute fortune on all the humdrum routine stuff too through the magic of outsourcing procurement. Why pay £50 to get a pair of boots when you can secure a supply for £150 a pair and a future consultancy/directorship for the minister of defence.
