Gav, we were buying the F35B, but yesterday the SDSR has us down as buying the F35C in it's place. A lot of the Engineering guys in Samlesbury now sat nervously pondering the implications.

Hmm alot more aero engineers on here than I first thought. Interesting to hear from the pointy end of the business, you guys don't normally experience hardships when the poop hits the fan.

 

In respect to the comments about the holes in the other end of the boat needing fixing I still think the ones in our end of the boat are going to get our feet wet first and in most probability the ones down the other end are so big we'd have to stick our head out through them to plug it, we'd obviously drown doing that. I can also forsee that should we plug the hole down the other end the dumb ass's would kick a huge hole in our end just to prove their god was better than ours!!

How can we afford to give away £11.5bn

 

Each year our deficit is £150 billion , this is not our debt , our debt exceeds £1 Trillion !!!

these cuts over 4 years total £83 billion or £21 billion a year

this wont pay off any debt at all , but lessen the increase in total debt growth!!

 

So how do we pay the debt? when we cant even get rid of the annual deficit? well its supposed to be via growth , yeah right!

the debt is unpayable ,so we play a game of pretend we will pay it , this will obviously be sussed in the end !!

Its a good reason to have armed forces , for when we are sussed out

The yanks debt is in the many trillions , but they have a bigger army !!

we may even decide to just print off a load of money to pay our debts with, but then it turns into monopoly money.

Thing is its China that is most likely to get had over , they have sussed us and are kicking back !

So the game is have a large army to keep things in check ,but a large army is totally unproductive and costs loads,so you borrow more !!

Chinas army is proper big getting bigger , they want to join the game too,interesting times ahead !!

China is very good at games , they just banned all exports of rare earth metals (they have something like 96% of them) but just about all new technology is driven by rare earth metals !!!

If you want rare earth metals then set up a company in China is their perspective , they get the technology and supply the materials , well until they dont !! ,,,,

So whats 11.5 billion? in the big game .... its only numbers:D
