Would the honourable gentleman care to answer why we have less combat aircraft than we have MPs, MSPs, MEPs and the membership of the National Assemblies of Wales and Northern Island? Why they earn £60k+ a year with a very generous allowance package and accrue a final salary pension of 1/40th for every year they work, when the Armed Forces are being told to take huge allowance and likely pension reductions plus reductions in equipment?
Somebody has their "snout in the trough" don't they SoS? And it isn't the Queen's most loyal servants that risk life and limb for their country...
