Its my View

I despair at some of the actions of this government!

They have announced new helicopters for Afghanistan, which of course is good. But they won’t be available until 2013!!!

I thought that by then our soldiers had pulled out leaving the ‘well trained’ Afghan soldiers to protect themselves from the Taliban!!

So the helicopters won’t be available until AFTER our soldiers come home – OR does brown know that they are going to be there for many years yet!

Has brown now admitted that when he repeatedly and consistently said that our soldiers had enough equipment and helicopters (remember the NATO troops were sharing helicopters) that he was WRONG!

Yet now brown and his ministers are claiming credit for spending money on ‘supporting’ our troops. It just seems so cynical. Perhaps there is an election due soon!
