Sunk at Narvik,

I wish I had your optimism. I am very much a glass half full person but, I am getting more and more depressed. We are fighting two major conflicts with approximately 50% of the UK forces in Afghanistan from the RN/RM and we are slash, cut, cut, cut.

I truly hope that CVF is built, because if it isn't there is no-where for the RN to go. The escorts have gone, the submarines have gone, all we have are transport ships. Maybe we could start up the Grey Funnel Line ferries when Portsmouth is sold off!

If CVF is cancelled, then there had better be some resignation letters from certain sectors!
