The Best We Have??

Could we not have selected a better CAS? Sir Glenn Torpy looked ill at ease during the interview, lacked any gravitas (more like a Del Boy sans savvy), mangled the English language and demonstrated a very poor "face" of our proud Service. Undoubtedly a top bloke, but we need someone with balls, ie Sir Richard Dannett.

Sadly, any CAS must "fit in" as far as the government is concerned, as they have the right of veto. So I guess we get the man they say, not necessarily the man we want, or need.
