FJJP,
"This government has decimated the Armed Forces to the lowest point ever in its history"
Utter utter nonsense, you have no sense of history if you believe that to be the case.
The RAF does not have 10 Harriers it will have 70 odd upgraded GR9/9A's, so your Kandahar point is?
Draw me ONE valid and credible parallel between the situation in the 1930's and today, go on, just one.
DAMM shame though if this Vulcan goes the way of the example at Blackpool, or even the Beverley at Hendon, and THAT was in the care of the RAF Museum!
