Firstly what assumptions have ben made regarding other UK commitments during your future Malvinas campaign? For if everyone is away doing whatever Toady wants us to do to help him lick Dubya's ar$e, protect his diamonds from thieving rebels, stop squabbling Balkan peasants fighting eachother over uninhabitable mountains covered in goat cr@p, etc, etc, there won't be many people left to protect the Islas Malvinas.

The Vulcan raids proved that there was still a need for long range bombers, the SHARs and Harriers proved the need for credible naval air power. Learning from that, we now have NO long range bombers, FEWER real aircraft carriers - and the SHARs under threat.......RIIIIIIIIIGHT!!

Good luck against all those elephants......
