BRITS ARE PIPING MAD AT OUTSOURCING OF MILITARY EQUIPMENT

It appears a good number of informed Brits are pretty angry at outsourcing within their defense industry. I feel ya my transatlantic brothers in arms. Well, maybe not brothers in arms, they're outsourced, but you know what I mean.

Regular visitors to this site will remember that yesterday we brought you news of the parlous state of the Royal Navy – now little more than a coastal defence force. We also described how even ammunition and other munitions are now being sourced from overseas, following the closure of British Ordnance factories by a succession of criminally irresponsible Tory and Labour “governments”

Today we learn that even our armoured vehicles are to be supplied from foreign factories, despite the lessons of history and the fact that British manufacturers have a long and proven record of excellence in the production of British built fighting machines!

It is as though Labour and the Tories have a secret agenda to render Britain wholly dependent on foreigners for our defence.- folly (or is it treason?) unprecedented in British history.
Check out some of the comments to that blog.
