You could probably safely put money on no new or reopened bases and no commitment to anything north of the border until threats of Brexit/second Scottish referenda are passed.
While that is undoubtedly the logical thing to do,
CM, Great point. Of course there's always a school of thoght to say put more into Scotland to make the consequences of Scottish independence less palatable when resources are removed afterwards.
You are quite right,but the trouble with people like the SNP leadership, as it generally goes, is they'd argue that all assets north of the border, whatever the imbalance, are rightfully their allotted portion of HM Forces.
Er, you guys know it's not the English Royal Air Force, right?
