There is a world shortage of medical opium. Buying it from Afghan farmer would establish good relations rather than the opposite caused by current strategy of torching the only crop that grows really well there. Also ex O farmers go and join taliban. Plus illegal trade also funts taliban." Show less »

    The LibDems have said many times that they will show fairness to pensioners.  Of the one million British state pensioners who are living abroad in retirement, 500,000 have their pensions indexed as promised, BUT the other 500,000 have their pensions frozen.  Will the LibDems press parliament to make sure that ALL British state pensioners receive the indexed pension they paid for when they and their employers contributed regular payments to the National Insurance Fund?  Surely where they live in retirement is totally irrelevant!"

Show more »"In the remarks on Arrse the Conservative position is to have  an SDR as soon as possible and to run at the same time a restructuring of MoD and defence Procurement.  Would it not be sensible to wait the outcome of the SDR so that we have the Defence Procurement that is required and the Ministry of Defence organised to properly fit the requirements of the Forces.  It would seem that MoD restructuring along with Defence Procurement changes would mean that the SDR would have to be tailored to meet these requirements rather than actual defence requirements."

Show more »"2009, anniversaries of Darwin and his most famous work, is passing with little or no public debate on the scientific basis of his work, which, I would have thought,  has had a profound influence on UK attitudes to religion etc. I believe you have written online on this subject in the past. May I suggest you try and open up a debate in your newspaper column in late November, the anniverary of 'origin of species'. The US has a live public debate on this issue, as seen for instance on amazon.com on books by Behe etc. Here popular discussions on evolution, only seem to present one side of the argument."

Show more »"The base is quite rightly predominatly staffed by civil servants, many of whom are very competent and extremely committed, but unfortunately the bulk of them do not have sufficient understanding of military activities.  This is explicable and has been the case for many years but this was in the past balanced, mainly, with a good proportion of military staff with the requisite experience.  The ongoing OEP and SRR within DE&S appears to be ripping out the majority of the military manpower, as such staff are typically more expensive than their civilian counterparts.  From my perspective as a 'customer' of DE&S is that this is purely a cost-saving exercise with scant regard for supporting operational capability effectively - the Front Line Commands have not been, and are not being, consulted and consequently the entire risk (both operational and financial) sits with them not DE&S.  Will the SDSR look at the most effective way to support operations, and their preparations, and fully resource the support area where it is believed that the cuts have been too deep - even if it costs more in some areas? " Show less »

The defence review will seek to reduce spending. We are all aware that that is the agenda and why it is happening now. After thirty plus years of steady reductions (and occassionally massive cuts - for example the strategic defence review of the early '90s) there's barely any fat in the system. Any significant cuts will remove a capability for example only ordering one aircraft carrier would mean that for much of the time we had no aircraft carrier at all. In many instances the savings would be small in comparison with the losses, for example, reducing the army by one brigade (roughly ten per cent) would remove our ability to rotate brigades through two theatres simultaneously or in other words halve our capability. So what is it that you think we may not need?" Show less »
