Nobody in Scotland ever suggested closing Marham to save Lossie! As long as Tornado is in service Marham is essential. Question will be in what numbers and its that which will finally decide Lossie's future.

However, with the F3 about to leave service, Leuchars future is dicey. It would be just as easy to relocate Typhoon further north or in the current climate not at all concentrating on Conningsby.

As for the Scottish Elections, a bit of a red herring as Defence is a matter reserved for Westminster. So take the bl**dy decision and stop the flaffing!
