You can of course point out your smugness and you may be right. But do we know that? Lord Robertson said that Defence spending should go up to 3% of GDP. There have been a few other articles in the press. It hasn't gone away just yet. It may take a while for anything concrete to come out of their Lordships broadside.
Sadly, I think that you will be proved right in the end; the 2 Browns will just ignore it and it will fade away.

Unless momentum could be maintained if someone picked up on the report that accomm at RAF Colt is not good enough for illegal immigrants yet it was for the military, while at the same time the point is being made elsewhere (including the formers Chiefs of Defence Staff) that accomm for the military is not up to the basic minimum. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle2963348.ece
So if Home Office and ex-Chiefs are saying the same thing, how can MOD be different?
