Now Wastelands is no longer going to be a British company (being bought out by Finmeccanicockup), will Mr Blair really care about awarding huge contracts to the Italians, who have not shown much support for his war on whatever it is this week!

The money could be better spent on ensuring his best mate Dubya brings a much needed boost to the faltering US aircraft industry

Payback for the yanks buying US101.

Of course any deal might involve assembly under licence in Yeovil, which would then degrade the quality of assembly and put us back to square one.
