Should the RAF be scrapped

The politicians would be well advised to remember that the first responsibility of government is the defence of its people and their way of life. The Royal Air Force does a damn good job of supporting that requirement, and any structural change in the current form, involving amalgamation with other forces, risks diluting and damaging its effectiveness. It is also extremely doubtful that it would save money, in fact reprinting all the headed notepaper alone, would probably cost more.
