For too long now the UK Government(s) have been playing at being a top 3 world power on a top 30 budget.
We've got a 'top 3' budget, it's how wisely you spend it.
10 years ago my basic training accommodation consisted of a portakabin, beds held together with bungees, no hot water and shared lockers. None of us minded, but maybe it's indicative of where they're going wrong. (as well as sending people out to fight illegal wars based on lies, something I
didn't sign up for)
