Aircraft Carrier Toilets:

Do you sometimes feel that you are "Treated like mushrooms" - kept in the dark & fed on bullshit ??

An Illuminating Image Of The Ordinary Citizen ...

.. Feed Me Seymore.

One small example of British Bullshit for the public might be the Elizabeth Class Aircraft Carriers.

Is That The Captains Car Parked on Deck?

The 2010 Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR) declared that the UK needed only one aircraft carrier - however, penalty clauses in the contract meant that to cancel the second vessel would be more expensive than actually building it.

Above Water:

These two behemoths .. HMS Queen Elizabeth & HMS Prince of Whales were ordered as some sort of last ditch effort to pretend that "Brittania" still rules the waves.

Red Nose Day.

Incredibly - these two super-carriers will be crippled right from conception .. they should have been nuclear powered but they couldn't afford it .. so any time they move out of port they'll have to be trailed by a fleet of turbine-fuel & diesel tankers ..

They should have been equipped with catapult launchers and cable landing arresters  - but you guessed it - they couldn't afford them so they changed to STOVL planes that will be operationally too heavy to land again without dumping their fuel and armaments - so they are "developing" a new technique of nearly-vertical landing at 70 mph .. 

 - now they've realized they haven't got enough jolly-jack-tars & jackess's to run the things even without any planes aboard so they've decided that they'll run these two joke-boats alternately .. turn & turn about ! 

This is not to mention in AUSTERITY BRITAIN that these money-drains are currently estimated to be costing in excess of 7 Billion pounds - PLUS the reduced number of F35 planes will exceed another 13 plus Billion pounds.

Under Water:

The British Trident Nuclear Missiles urgently need four new DREADNOUGHT submarines to garage them .. estimated costing currently some further 41 Billion Pounds.

- Incidentally - Britain does not own it's Trident missiles or warheads - they are American owned and controlled despite being on UK's navy ships (they are not armed either - some deterrent).

Someone's making money out of it.

Bear in mind that these government administrations are the professionals and we voted for them - they know what they are doing.

Captain Nick Cooke-Priest is no longer in charge of the HMS Queen Elizabeth because he is believed to have been sacked for using the aircraft carrier's official car on weekends
