But, to be fair, FC, he has a point....
The debate regarding defence has, to date, been led by a series of articles written by journalists who claim to have some expertise, but who make the sort of mistakes which make Lewis Page's error-ridden pieces seem as though they were written by Clausewitz (or at least Mrs Clausewitz).
There've been many complaints here about the public not engaging with the issue of defence (no, WEBF, that is
not a cue for you to link to your old 'public ignorance' thread....
), and one now seems to have broken out - but its a debate which is, to date, not going to produce anything remotely sensible, since the public will, by and large, assume that the likes of Sam Kiley - because he's a war correspondent - will know what they're on about. The risk is that the debate which people have said would be a good thing will turn out to be more dangerous to defence as a whole (and not just the RAF) than not having one at all...
Kiley is not one of the "so-called tutors" at the 'College of Knowledge'.
