If a TV reporter knows the location of submarines etc then the blame lies with whoever thought telling a reporter was a good idea - not with the reporter

Quite. He is only guessing the likely general locations of the subs like the rest of us.

Only NATO and the Russians will know the exact locations of our submarines.

We are all responsible for the likely results of our actions - no special case or excuse for reporters. No "the big boy told me to do it" no "I was only following my orders" or "Ive got to earn a living guvnor" sorry Ive got carried away, you will gather I'm a bit unto the responsibility of the individual.

Just tell Mr Putin that if he starts anything,he will have to spend the night in bed with Mrs May

That will stop him in his tracks

All this nonsense was probably instigated by terrorists,what better way of defeating your enemy than, by getting them to start fighting each other,just a thought.


If the Russians wanted to invade GB they could walk in anytime,we have nothing to stop them.

Yep, just a slight one,!.
Lets send it anyway, the US Sixth fleet will be there, we can always ask them the hold our hand, hell they may even rent us some of their planes, the question is what will they want in return.

Britain should stick to diplomacy, and should lead, not follow, diffusing a situation is preferable to inflaming it.
