Question PM Gordon Brown - Defence Policy

So thats it, after a thrilling week on the hustings, it's been confirmed that the Rt Hon member for Kirkoddee is to be our next Prime Minister. I must confess I did not see that coming Congratulations on a well fought campaign Mr Brown.

As this is a Mil forum, I wondered if any of you had heard Mr Brown outline his policy on Defence, and if he's updated it since the famous quote:

"Every defence pound is a wasted pound."

Three questions:

a. Which direction do you think GB plc will take with foreign policy and how will that affect the structure of our beloved Armed Forces?

b. Will GB do the honourable thing and legitimise his position by calling a general election, thereby obtaining the mandate of the people?

c. Mrs Margaret Beckett for SoSDef - anyone?

The answers to all these affect everyone on this forum.

The floor is yours Ladies and Gentlemen. Crack on
