Let me put you bang straight right here. The 2008 SDR sought to improve the UKs expeditionary capability based on the experiences in that decade. It was demolished by successive Tory led reviews that have put us where we are. In fact to give the Tories some credit we would have been in a worse position had they not reinstated the carriers. ( Debatable point for another thread)
The only Labour led review in the past 18 years, was last year. You are not looking at the results of it.

Back to the thread...
