I agree with Dallas on the whole. The important thing is, The Armed Forces were around long before Little Gordon learned that 2+2 announced 10 times made 40 Billion for the NHS on his toy abacus. They will be around long after he and his party of social engineering, low ability, spin obsessed and quite frankly, unfit for purpose misfits have gone.
It just puts lives and careers in danger NOW. But as long as new stuff is announced, and the public are reassured, it will be ok. Expect a 3.5% rise, staged over two years. Seems popular with the AFPRB.
