What about the horses?
I guess the concern is not simply the fact the Army has horses but that it owns around 4000 of them. The annual cost to "maintain" these cannot be insignificant, so it's not unreasonable to ask if such a large number can continue to be funded within a shrinking Defence Budget.
With the Navy having to pay for the Trident replacement and it and the RAF and RN losing capabilities, can we afford if you will pardon the expression, any sacred cows
