I would love to know what the Govt of this country is taking to make them so self-delusional. We are a piddly little tin pot economy in today's world, increasingly dependent on the support of other nations to achieve anything in the wider world. Flash, of course, thinks he is the only decent economist amongst the pack but he now has no dosh to spend to keep up with them.
So how on earth do his military advisers think we are going to project power with our little piggy bank and still be able to afford to look after our own? They must be taking the same drugs - or are they simply trying to keep their pet projects alive.
The last thing we should be spending precious defence money on is carriers.
Time to act according to the needs of UK PLC - not to delay the CVFs but to cancel them.
