As we were saying at lunch (a little liquid)...
Let's just bin the whole bally lot. Scrub the single services completely and have a single defence force. Centralise all the support functions, think of all that money saved. And no more single service chiefs bickering. All one uniform, so we can keep the costs of kit down, joint training regimes wherever possible then specialise on sea, land or air. Build super-bases across the country (it's happening anyway with Devonport becoming a ghost town (if FOST moves it'll be goodnight Guz)). Give SAR to the Coastguard, too.
Like I say, it was a bit liquid and we did work this up on the back of a fag packet. A bit like the last budget, really
