Re: Lakenheath popularity
As Reaper172 only has 3 posts under their belt, they will not be able to see yesterday's post or any other Heads Up. Always worth checking before launching.

Re: The Ukraine Situation
Yes, there is a very good case for it, but would you like to pay for it with increased taxes?? Personally yes I would, I would like to feel that as a nation we could seriously defend ourselves with less reliance on partners and allies.

Re: The Ukraine Situation
Is there not a good case for increasing defence spending across all 3 services and reversing some of the defence cuts that have taken place over the past 20/30 years?
