Well I can tell you what Adm Woodward thinks in the latest edition Warships IFR. Comments like
"Their will be blood on their hands."
and he goes on to berate the decision to cancel the Shar saying
"...and of course from 2006 until the first new aircraft carrier is in service, the UK's expeditionary force will lack an air defence capability. It will actually be less than that contrived against the Argentinians in 1982."
Government lies, and negligence run at the core of his well written article.
