I find it ironic that in stuffing Britains own shipbuilding industry Labour is also shafting their own core vote. A great deal of British shipyards are in Labour seats, heck the yard which was going to build the final CVF is Gordon Browns old seat! Talk about being taken for granted! It shocks me that the people in these seats still vote for people who are so happy to hang them out to dry…

Labour’s core vote doesn’t depend on the working class any more, there aren’t enough of them anyway 😀

Labour depends on the votes of morons who will always vote Labour no matter what, civil servants whose jobs have no useful purpose and people dependant on the various forms of benefits and advantages that this government hands out like some political drug pusher 😡

I expect we will soon hear that the Invincible class carriers will be retired early to safeguard the CVF program in the same way that Sea Harrier retirement has safeguarded the JSF program 😉

Military coup now! :diablo:

Is the time right for the F-35 Crusader II ? :dev2:

so much hate for a promising aircraft..I wonder if some people would feel the same at some russian attempts to make a JSf compeititor..;)

I don’t hate the F-35 I’m just deeply disappointed with how the whole JSF program has become compromised and politicized 😡

F-35 Irritator :diablo:
