Airpolice. Kinloss in Fife? Maybe we now know the truth; the Nimrods wern't scrapped at all, they just asked a policeman for directions and were never seen again !
PS Mr Airpolice, I know you only quoted the BBC but I couldnt let the chance go past!
I believe that the army are in the process of moving in there already. Does anyone any idea when Leuchars (which is in Fife) closes? The BoB airshow is confirmed on for this September so presumably still a flying station then.
Philip Hammond is of course indulging in just the sort of nonsense talk we up here have come to expect from Westminster politicians these days. Now that they have lost the economic argurment they resort to bullyboy tactics and they simply don't realise that in doing so they are acting as the best recruiting sergeants independence could ever wish for! This is just like Orborne and Darling last week who said that England might not let Scotland use the pound sterling, until reminded by Alex Salmond that Sterling was a convertible currency which meant that anyone anywhere in the world could use it. Michael Moore had to go on TV at the weekend and retract their claim. You'd think that the existing and most recent former Chancellor would have known better. They probably did but just expected us Scots not to and to be afraid, very afraid! .
