In following a kinds of news stories about Britain over the past 10 years, it seems pretty clear that they have completely lost their minds, and their soul.

Britain is finished.

Not So Great Britain was finished a long time ago. They were finished when they kicked the greatest Prime Minister in the history of Britain out of office after WWII in favor of an Honest-To-No-God Socialist. They were finished when they willingly, eagerly embraced all the ills of socialism after WWII. They were finished when they cheerily supported nationalization of their industries. They were finished when they decided that their ethinicity was seperate from "Britishness", and that an anti-freedom Muslim from Pakistan was just as much a Briton as a Londoner raised in the Church. They were finished when they turned their back on Britania in favor of Europa. They were finished when they decided that national greatness is not an ideal to be worked for, but an arrogant affront to the community of nations.

It's painfully clear that Churchill and Thatcher were the exceptions to the rule, and that Clement Atlee and Harold Brown are the rule.

Worse, Cameron is about as good as they can expect, and the truth is, they have no choice to but make these defense cuts. They have no money.
