  The Nomrod took decades to develop, and even just this process crippled the Treasury, particularly when combined with the costs in developing so many other kinds of weapons.
  Then comes the cost of producing and operating.
  
  It is probable that devoloping new kinds of technically advanced war-machinery has reached its peak world-wide. Other countries have also spent fortunes on developing modern war equipment. Adding up the sums spent, and also on producing and operating it all, worldwide, the figures spent have been far too high!
  
  The action taken by the Government to scrap the Nimrod planes is no-doubt a decisive measure to change this situation, and I would imagine that future development efforts will be concentrated on peaceful projects. We can be sure that the Government has every intention of persuing good relations with our allies in the world, and is following a realistic line that will help bring futurte economic prosperity to the world. Other countries will be doing the same, and concentrating their efforts on peaceful progress and development in the fields of science and technology.
  
  In this sense, Britain is making real-time history! We cannot turn back, and must go forward.
