Since this long political thread has come round to the subject of The Cuts, perhaps I could link it back to the original issue.
I understood that the good old generous Royals footed the bill for the so-called wedding, and all the rest of us had to do was stump up the paltry 20 million quid for security. But my question is: in a time when the defence chiefs are screaming about how cuts are decimating our defence capability, when we are decomissioning aircraft carriers and cancelling fighter jet programmes (all things I agree with, BTW, but that is not relevant), what are we doing paying for all these squaddies to be prancing about on horses................and paying for RAF jets to do flypasts? _______________________________________________ Leedslist mailing list Info and options: http://mailman-new.greennet.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/leedslist To unsubscribe, email leedslist-unsubscr...@gn.apc.org MARCHING ON TOGETHER (There's it)
