The BBC ran the story on Tuesday about the sorry state of Britain’s troop moving capacity in Afghanistan; namely, Britain has 40 Chinook helicopters of which 20 are desert compatible of which 10 are in Afghanistan of which only eight are flight worthy.Thank goodness the Taliban don’t know anyone who knows anyone who watches the BBC or else they’d know this too and then possibly start putting more of a concerted effort into Chinook hunting.
Next week the BBC is running a story on where all of our PPE and armoury is kept in Afghanistan (generally in the American stores prior to being raided by our ill-equipped personnel).
The Brown thing in charge has claimed that our troops are all talking bollocks and in reality they are the best equipped in the world. Wooton Bassett would disagree.
