Therein lies your problem methinks. You do not get to those ranks by saying "No". Of course they would say "Yes". Yes to budget cuts, yes to troop cuts, yes to sqn cut, yes to ship/sub cuts, yes to wider civilianisation, yes to PFI, yes to reduced equipment capability, yes to the latest PC boks. Do you see where this is going yet? "Yes we would love to invade Minister! When?"
