Longcol Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Why do we need such a large military force ? Especially why do we still need over 20,000 troops based in Germany - and all that expensive equipment - tanks, helicopters etc. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Forces_Germany What exactly are they doing - we don't seriously expect the Russians to invade do we?

Alastair Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 We could save lots of money and lives by pulling out of Afghanistan. I have no idea why we're there anyway so long after the post 9/11 punitive expedition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solomo Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Round up all the greedy bankers (and others) who caused the problems, confiscate all their assets and pay the money towards the national debt. Then shoot all the bankers etc and their families to make me feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alchresearch Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Also save £130 billion by scrapping Trident and not replacing it. It's pointless for us to have nuclear weapons, who would we ever use them against? http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2009/sep/18/trident-replacement-hidden-cost-revealed All we have to do is scrap it - but not tell anybody! Even go to the length of making dummy missiles if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogs Of War Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 bring back the death penalty for murderers, peado`s , child killers and rapists. this would save millions of pounds. the vast amount we spend on keeping the likes of Sutcliffe ,Huntley, Whiting and the rest in prison for the rest of their lives is money that could be put to better use in cutting our deficit.

They could combine this with the national lottery. You pay £1 for a chance to be the one to press the switch which operates the trapdoor to hang them!

Bedders Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 We should scrap the arm forces in this time and age no one will invade other countries with UN in place, we will clear our debt in no time, and all the people in the army can work in factories and start doing something worthworth in their life for a change Tell that to Kuwait, Afganistan & Iraq. Either occupied by neighbouring countries / dictators / or oppresive regimes! Have you forgotten the Falklands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
