Amateur cynic, life has made me this way. Forgive me I'm bored

@RandomRambler15 @R_P_one "large enough to be refitted with hybrid engines"

So I'm assuming they'll replace the batteries with a Gas Turbine gen set.
As long as HMT doesn't get involved, it should be big enough.

@EWTNews Good, now he can take them to the Vatican to live with him.

@sarrah_bellus From what I saw of New Years celebrations from around the world, it's not just an American thing - seems all fireworks displays have descended into quantity over quality.

@DJSnM You could have just stopped at "looks like the US education system is failing to teach"

@shawn_abigail1 @pinstripedline Sadly no-one will know how to flight these non-touch screen devices, maintain them, nor have spares even if they did.
And most likely, non of the munitions will fit/work other than maybe dumb bombs.

@McmeekinIan @Gabriel64869839 Pay the initial payment and then cancel it all due to budget issues but pay the cancellation fees anyway!

@LuvlyAlpacino Love the fact they have possibly a very high end AV system and still have subtitles on

@thinkdefence It’s a case of asking for every possible thing as it’s someone else’s budget/money.
Prob same for Mil Kit being over spec’d, hugely complex and maintenance nightmares

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@thinkdefence My experience of both Gov IT & Big Org contracts is that requirements are usually driven by mgt & Dir reporting - this drives data collection, form design/entry making it a massive undertaking, reducing efficiency at ‘coal face’ and then the reports are never used!

@MikeHanchomSelf @ingelramdecoucy Don’t forget banning gas cookers and forcing only Electric

@HistoryBoomer Is that the conspiracy theory that the titanic didn’t sink, it was an insurance scam? 🤔 🤣

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@thorwaldrd @thinkdefence Sorry, the budget doesn’t stretch to the wooden pole or the flag … or bullets!

@mickm115 @thinkdefence It’ll still be going in 41st century.. with a few upgrades

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@Warge6 @thinkdefence Then you can tow it using the new Ajax recovery vehicle … Oh! Wait 🤔

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@BMR_Blogs @thinkdefence “AAW Destroyers” nope, just been cancelled with current ones decommissioned soon.

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@Udlah @thinkdefence But no budget for shells, just shout “BANG” and duck

@LandSharkUK 2/2
Also, people might engage more and know who is responsible than current councillors who have power but blame the PM.

[A Cynic 4 life @AO156]

@LandSharkUK Yes. Given the map of the proposed EU areas before BREXIT, England was to be, if I recall, three areas, the North & Midlands would have devolution(ish).
Only issue is if it’s another layer of gov and not replacing & existing layer - maybe county councils could go.
