    true, but it will make invading us very expensive and it's a huge deterrence. the US for example, wouldn't risk their carrier group with our subs.

    Submarines

    Before the Corona Virus the 200 billion dollars for purchase and maintenance was a complete waste of money .

    During and after the Corona Virus it is an immoral waste of taxpayer money that the country now requires.

    Tear up the contract immediately.

    The Americans have Defence Readiness Conditions (Defcon) 1 to 5. No.1 being nuclear war imminent and No.5 being normal readiness. I believe the French have a similar system called run, hide, surrender, collaborate.

    Don't knock the French, they saved Great Britain at Dunkirk.

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Won’t happen. They can respond. So that one isn’t going to play out.
