old man Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 I'm afraid you highlight only a minute portion of what was said, he seems a principled individual. I don't agree with everything he says or proposes by any means but experience tells me that if the inequalities he highlighted are not redressed we will all be the losers big time? History tells that when hope and aspiration is removed from society, eventually there is big trouble? Â To balance it up a bit, does anyone find any of the recent politicians are any more trustworthy and morally worthy of their positions? Tons of salt needed? Â Anyway enough of the real world, just off to clean and oil some tackle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick miller Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) I think he may have it right on Trident, but not a nuclear deterrent. Trident is extremely expensive to maintain; at a time when our army, navy and air force are facing massive cuts you have to ask whether this particular nuclear deterrent is the most cost effective? Â No doubt we need one but it could be one that, quite literally, offers better bang for the buck!

felly100 Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Maybe he's on to something. I'd go one further though,just tell all our enemies we have nuclear missiles on the subs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STOTTO Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Well at the next general election at least we know that labour really will be the, ‘Nuclear Option’, might at as a deterrent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tons of salt needed?Anyway enough of the real world, just off to clean and oil some tackle.I thought I gave a link to the BBC report in totality? As for principles. He seems to be making it up as he goes along. This latest nonsense is in response to the problem of the unions. Now he thinks we should keep the sub's and ditch the nukes. I would love to know what he thinks they should be armed with?  Usually I would personally tend left of centre. But he is making lab unelectable and since the liberals are in the political wilderness it seems English voters at least are being robbed of serious options. Poor show. Not really my problem here, other than someone has to form the next UK govt. 😨😨 Edited January 17, 2016 by Dr D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Bear Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Typical socialist fudge - build very expensive subs at our expense (to keep his commie union mates happy) that are of no use as they are not armed. Â Lift sympathy strike ban and picketing so the unions rule. Â Could not make it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr D Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Underwater cruise ships? No cruise missiles though. May be he knows there is a gap in the tourism market? Come to faslane and see Beaufort's dike on HMS astute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr D Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 The Falklands may well be an issue very soon? No Aircraft or Carriers? Oops! There will be if he gets his way. Mr Corban also thinks we should discuss the Falklands with Argentina. I'm not sure what he thinks we should talk about, because labour surely engrained the concept of consent in northern Ireland in 1998. Maybe he thinks we should revisit that principle starting in the south Atlantic? It's all very concerning no matter what question you ask him!

keg Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Listening to Mr McClusky on Radio 4 today, The unions will not let Barrow close. There is no other employment in Barrow other than minimum wage stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
