Admiral: 'tinpot' armed services
Britain's beleaguered Armed Forces are in danger of being turned by the Government into a "tinpot gendarmerie" incapable of defending UK interests, according to one of the country's top military figures.
Surely he cant be wrong as well? It seems every week another top military figure is speaking out at the lack of support and forward thinking from the men in suits at the MOD. If Blair wants to wage a War on two fronts he needs to put the resources in place. It seems to me we need more ex soldiers sailors and airmen in side Whitehall then the Armed Forces might get a fair crack of the whip. We are way overstretched because unlike the US military we are a tiny force. The US Marines has more assets alone than our whole armed forces. Can the British Government assure the British people that they are doing enough at home to secure our borders from terrorist attack? Read It Here
