Funny that there is plenty of money to bail out banks (which I accept had to be done to keep the economy in the perilous state it is in now) but none to keep the basic bits of the country running, the bits that we all use but which most politicians and bankers seem to avoid.
Maybe an economy built in the la-la land of financial services and investments, that purely runs on confidence not reality is where it all went wrong.
We still need basic items and raw materials (for what little we make) shipping in from overseas and therefore have interests globally. How do we protect them after such a blatant smash and grab raid on defence spending?
Anybody who thinks this review was 'strategic' is just plain stupid. It will take many years for HM forces to recover.
