Like I say, we can't just magic 10's of 1000's of trained Professionals out of our ar$e............

The cracks are starting to show after years of non-investment and actual reductions in capability. By all Governments...not just the current one, or the one before that................

I, like you, do worry about our abilities to respond to an attack in anywhere outside of our major urban centres. Or worse still, a coordinated attack in more than one place at one time.

At least when the French get attacked they manage to flood the streets with Police and Army presence almost immediately. How effective it is I wonder, but at least Joe Public feels something is being done, and feels safer. I'm not sure we could do the same.........

That is all.
