The Balance Of Power


Recommended Posts

Your obviously a bright young lad

But being young you lack wisdom lol

You tend to look one dimensional

From the perspective of one that's doing ok

Try looking in from the viewpoint of those struggling already

I see our needs in terms of defence differently to you. I see our defensive needs at a minimum right now. Tell me what you want from our Military? I've told you what I want, so tell me how we can achieve that with further budget cuts?

Max, we don't need to compete pound for pound with China and Russia etc, that's the point in military alliances. But we must remain credible and capable of upholding our responsibilities. We are getting to the point of a critical mass and it's threatening our ability to effectively defend our interests.
