If I switched on the news tomorrow and the headline is “The USA has bombed…”, any country or continent could be at the end of that sentence and my surprise (or lack of) would be the same.

The USA is being run with no guard rails by a deranged dictator, backed up by white supremacists and corporate robber barons. Any country is fair game including NATO members, in response the UK should switch to a war economy.

    A few more entirely European built warships wouldn’t be a bad thing, but let’s try and leave sea mines out of future wars, they have a nasty habit of getting detached and end up floating the oceans and killing civilians.

      Yeah, mines suck, not just sea mines, but if you’re up against a multi trillion € army, you better get ready to use the ugliest unmanned contraptions you can get your hands on.
