Just another job now , you used get a pension at 38 if gone in at 18, now it's 67... Who wants to serve your country that is considered just as important any other job on civvy street.
Another "Capita" fiasco incoming and its billion £s recruiting Navy contract the Tory government has dished out.

My cousin worked on the nuclear subs,he got s pension really early.

A source told the newspaper: "It left the submarine but it just went plop, right next to them."

So they should being prepared to die for this country. This accident now being reported would have killed all on board, dummy war head or not, if it hit the sub. Would have been one less Grant Shapps as he was on board as well.

No argument from me , if your putting your life in danger for the country you should expect to be treated with respect.
Shapps will get a nice pension when they go out of government when the most dangerous thing he has faced is liz Truss with a knife and fork in her hands and a crazy look in her eyes.
The man is a disgrace.

Has anyone told Pete?

Well this is getting to another level of scary. Our supposed world beating nuclear deterrent isn’t much of a deterrent at all.

The last test in 2016 was also a failure, apparently.

Can’t even fire a blank..

Why would anyone want to report this news to the whole wide world?

I'd be like we successfully launched one of our escape pods that splashed down exactly where we wanted. Then go away and fix the issues on land.

Odd isn’t it, my thoughts exactly…unless of course it’s to embarrass Lockheed Martin…..

Because it's a way to pull the government-knobs trousers down. This is the result of chronic underfunding and russian aggression and heightened anxiety is as good a time to make an example of this.

Ask yourself, the last test was in 2016 and it failed. What else is only being tested and maintained every 8 years. The navy tit-heads at the top are battling for more funds.

It'd by hysterical if that bellwipe musk chimes in to offer a solution via his rockets and missiles company.

Bugger, I’ve still got another half dozen to get rid of yet…*whistles and walks slowly away…….

 

[peteblue]

It’s being called ‘an event specific anomaly’…at least our spin machines are working……

 

[Rita_Poon]
