It is stark-staring bleeding obvious that the UK Gov / MOD have got their budget versus capabilities equation totally wrong for where we are as a "nation" (small N, things are going downhill fast), going forward. The worst case is the giant war canoe situation. This debacle has left the RN unable to hold its head up in shallow water. What a ridiculous waste of a limited naval budget that should have been centred upon defence of our waters, not squandered on power projection and expeditionary cloud cuckoo land.
