OBR economic forecasts aren't political opinion, they're undeniable facts which relate directly to available money for defence spending, the topic of this thread.
Forecasts are not `undeniable facts`

Re: car walk-arounds

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. Not having a go at reaper in any way at all, but I think it can be slightly annoying to other forum members when asking for info that has been...

Re: Lakenheath popularity

I visited yesterday to try to get my first shots of the F-35A's (yes, slack I know) in decent weather. Apart from lots of casuals here as expected, Big Jet TV was pitched up in the corner of the visitors car park, with tall flag erected obstructing the spot just where I would take my pictures. As i...

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?
