  Barry, one thing is for sure: the Government does not agree with your view.
  That really explains everything, especially the fact that we cannot get involved in a mess in some other country that would pin our soldiers down in a situation such as the one which T. Blair led our forces into in Afghanistan.
  
  So your point has already been proved wrong by a Conservative government.
  Need I say more?
  
  As for the Falklands, I know full well there were some British soldiers based there, and the local Falklands Defence Force was also present (made up of inhabitants), but there were no British warplanes or warships there.
  No matter how you try to wriggle this around Barry: there were none!
  Not because Britain hadn't spent enough money on the Armed Forces, but simply because they were present elsewhere.
