FRI? Who the heck needs to be retained? 99% of the RAF will not be needed after the next round of defence cuts!
The RAF VISON FOR 20??
The only ac left in the RAF inventory will be those of the BBMF, enlarged to include one Typhoon, a GR9 and a C17. It will be renamed the RAF Memorial Flight, it will sponsored by Sainsburys, Halfords, IBM and Tesco ('****' for short and the conctract was signed before someone realised that this logo had to be emblazoned on the fuselage of the ac in big pink letters).
The ac will be flown by retired air officers, who selected themselves over a few G+Ts at 206 Piccadilly, W1. Of course, their airships will be on full time reservist pay to bolster their inflated pensions and massive 'consultacy fees' paid by BWoS/EADS/Airbus etc. Nonetheless, MoD Main Building will still be full of 'braid and bullsh!t' arguing about nothing in particular and we will still have more Air Officers than operational aircraft!
All wars will be 'off' when Gordon Brown is PM - because he knows he has sold our familiy silver and we can't we can't afford to play with the big boys anymore!
Everything will go to 'hell in handcart' because the US is running absolutely every operation (no change there! ...But at least we will be able to blame the US for the f-ups and not be 'guilty by association').
The only reason we still have a Royal Navy is to ensure we operate one sub with one Trident missile (still a nasty big bang, mind you) and we can retain our seat at the UN SC! (Iran and, even Austria, will have 4 such subs but we only let ours out of dock to run day trips round the Holy Loch and Ailsa Craig for US and Japanese tourists)
The British Army will consist of the SAS in Home Guard guise (Sterling Lines will be renamed Warmington-on-Sea Barracks) and, of course, we will still have the Household Cavalry (ceremonial stuff is sooo good for those US and Japanese tourists dontchaknow old bean!?)
There will naff-all UK Forces to 'overstretch' and everyone in the Services who was bemoaning the fact that they hated the desert, the time away on det, the lack of kit and decent trainging and 'wanted out', will have had their wishes granted (no redundacy package, of course)......but the public still won't care. This will be especially so after losing the 2006-08 Afghan War and had to draft in extra civvy ac to ferry the wounded and dead back from theatre, preventing many chavs from going to Benidorm and Disneyland - the Daily Mail ran the story for 2 weeks without even mentioning the troops.
There will be no UK Defence Policy, as having one will be seen as offensive to the large number of immigrants we 'import' to pick our crops, clean our streets, serve in our shops and do all the jobs we won't or can't do because 'middle england' is too busy watching or talking about Big Brother or shopping for 'bling' and 'electrical goods', most of which serve no other function other than to stop us having the time to 'wait a while and stand and stare'!
Where did we go so wrong??
Fact v fiction? You decide!
(btw I have no problem with any genuine immigrant from any country as long as they spend their money and stay in this country, accept our customs and laws, abide by those laws and don't go around killing the rest of us in fits of fanatical, extremist-inflamed aggression!)

What fen.......ouch, I fell!
Sorry!
ACDcY - Its a fact - The UK is almost bankrupt and the special US-UK friendship is not worth jack-all to you 'over there' anymore. This is especially true when our PM is obviously so far up Dubya's 'panama canal' that he can't, or won't, raise an eyebrow when the US seems to overstepped the mark in world politics.
It is no wonder why Russia, N Korea and China (not to mention most Muslims) are more afraid of the USA's current intentions than at any other time since WW2. It only because the radical muslims' 'mad mullahs' seem to be even less 'checked' by moderate voices within their communities that the divide between east and west is growing. This division is not helped by Mr Bush's ramblings and clueless helmsmanship.
