Unhappy

As I type, Lord Robertson is being interviewed by Jonathan Dimbleby.

Although I remain sceptical of all politico's, he's actually made a rather excellent plea to 'all Nato members finance ministers and this includes Gordon Brown to increase defence spending', also saying that 'antique equipment is a complete waste of money and a useless comfort blanket'.

Maybe is Gen Sec of Nato, he knows much of a cluster Kosovo was. I dont expect more money or changes overnight, however, maybe (hopefully!) this is the start of a waking up and smeeling the coffee process by our goverment.
