Putin that is. Apparently the navy and airforce have been shadowing 3 Russian submarines that have been loitering about above our undersea pipelines and cables for about a month. It seems there's no evidence these cables/pipes have been touched,however our government has said that any attempt to interfere with or damage them in any way will "Not be tolerated" and indeed will have "Serious consequences". Putin must be having sleepless nights after all it must be very difficult to laugh yourself to sleep! What exactly does the government think it can do that's "serious" to Russia?

Scary isn’t it. Having the technology to map undersea infrastructure and probably plant explosives to be detonated at a later date.

70% of uk gas comes via one pipeline from Norway.

If there is one takeaway it is to spend more money on defence probably at the expense of welfare.

" We see you"......and will do precisely SFA.

From the Telegraph...


Putin mocks Starmer with warship in channel.

"We see you" but will do SFA.

Yes, indeed.  When our Royal Navy was really big and scary, we did not have “welfare” to talk of, and certainly not the NHS.  Our spend vs. GPD was massively higher than in modern times, and our armed forces have suffered from massive cut backs.  The Royal Navy is a shadow of what it should be, and now the international threats have become very clear again, it will take a very bold and brave government to put the “Great” into Britain again and truly protect out interests.

To think at the Battle of Jutland in 1916 the Royal Navy had 28 dreadnoughts, just in the Home Fleet alone, available including 4 of the 5 super-dreadnoughts of the Queen Elizabeth Class that in fact went on to serve in WW2.  Yes, we know that one modern frigate, let alone a nuclear attack submarine has more fire power than all of those put together, but it is clear our dismally small Navy, that has the few warships undergoing “maintenance” , scares no one, and Trump is correct to say it is all a joke, the aircraft carriers are just “toys”.  To not be able to get a single warship to the Eastern Mediterranean within a few days says it all.

Yes, we the British public now must be prepared for the real sacrifices it will take to reverse fully the madness of what is, not only our Royal Navy, but the whole military as, if we do not, we must learn that we are going to lose big time our democratic rights and freedoms. 

PS our Welfare State and NHS will be no good to us anyway once we are under a dictatorship, or dead!

Keli Badenoch delivered a very good speech on defence this morning. I happened on it by accident whilst looking for footage of the return from the moon. She is a good speaker and it would be interesting to see what Reform would propose for rebuilding our defence capability.  Labour, Lib Dem’s and Greens haven’t got anything. Starmer keeps promising but not delivering.

The trouble is that they all talk about it, but then fail to explain how it can be paid for

You know that welfare you were talking about. I know where Farage would find the money.

Yes, but is even he brave enough to campaign in a General Election for that?
He does a hell of a lot of talking, but he has been known to quickly go into reverse gear when facing an opposing situation with others.

I bet the Ruzzians were really scared by the RFA supply ship that was sent to shadow them through the Channel the other day because most of the RN's warships are broken.

 With models of the Tirpitz and Bismarck 6 year old Opti had more naval firepower in his bath than the UK has today. How we became this run down I don't quite know.

When I were a lad, dad took at to an open day at one of the naval dockyards - probably Portland but could have been Plymouth or Portsmouth. I clearly remember climbing down the ladder into a submarine. As a present/bribe I was bought a pack of cards, and each card was a different named ship with it's silhouette on it. I think the 'Kings' were the four aircraft carriers - Ark Royal, Eagle, Bulwark and Hermes and the Aces were the 4 Poseidon nuclear deterrent subs. The remaining cards were various destroyers, frigates, submarines and minesweepers.

Today, the RN struggles to maintain a fleet big enough to populate a single suit, never mind a full pack.
