Well done, Cameron - those whining, sandaholic pongos and their 'boots on the ground' $hite really led you up the garden path.
Oh the irony! If you are laying the blame for the loss of MPA at the door of the Army, you are whining up the wrong tree.

Surely loss of the Nimrod is down to Air elements of the MOD, whether RAF or those in Abbey Wood, together with BAES. Between them, for over a decade, they couldn't get their $hit together. That would be a sad enough state of affairs, but to have squandered $4bn in the process is downright criminal. If not intentional, then criminally negligent.

How extraordinary to blame the loss of an RAF capability that has been royally screwed up by those involved on the Army. Been drinking?
