Yeh! Yeh! - "renewing - reviewing - lessons learned - changes taking place - should not have happened - a unique situation - overwhelming odds - unforseen - support is forthcoming - did not anticipate - as much armour as they need - blah blah blah and spin!"

Are you telling me that Bliar has not got a standing Army?

I follow Parliamentry procedures and cannot see where the Army in particular, and the Armed Forces in general, are renewed every year?

Is this another of one of those situations where this Government supports a "latter day Lord Protector principle" to serve their needs, whilst attempting to abolish the position of Lord Chancellor and the "Principle of Law" after 1000 years of history and democracy, to bring this country into the 21st century using bribes and blackmail for economic contracts and advantage

I think the Director of the SFO has more to say!!

As Churchill said " Democracy is not the best form of government, but it's the best we have"

I think Cromwell would have agreed with him
