    Yet another case of the Public sector going unchecked.

    The issue isn’t the cost, but the attitude that it’s okay for everyone to live off us. In an ideal world that would be true, in the real world it’s going to bankrupt us.

    10 years ago I was proud of our world leading NHS, now I look at it as an outdated ideal that’s bloated and rotten to the core.

    I saw PA474 ‘thunder’ down the length of the Derwent reservoir last month at tree top level, was one of the most impressive sights and sounds of my life. 😎

    “If any of Churchills actions are to be brought into question, it should be the betrayal of our Polish allies to the Russians, which subjected them to a further 50 years of occupation and terror”.

    I believe it was the labour govt (if anyone) that betrayed the Poles, “Keep the red flag flying” and all that.

    I seem to remember that it was Poland we went to war over, Ironic that at the end of a long and bloody war with the “enemy” vanquished, a former ally should seize hold of the very country we strove to protect, war weary and virtually bankrupt as we were, I doubt we could have done it all over again.

    So apart from the ‘100 models’ what are the ‘eight active service aircraft’ there?
