And as for the ring-fenced bloated overseas aid budget - don't get me started!!
Kinda make my point there. What you and I think of the spending priorities is utterly irrelevant. All that matters is what will happen to the defence budget in the next five years. The smart money is on it being hacked away at once more.
That means fewer people. And what do you think your five stars will do when the ever-stretched forces are asked to do yet another unforeseen task...
a. Raise two fingers to the minister and tell him/her we're closed for more business?
b. Bend over the ministers desk, drop trousers (or raise skirt) and ask for it good n hard?
Use your heads people...if you want to be a workaholic, get your arse on the outside...you'll make a ton more money.
