And you thought that the military strategy confusing our enemies by scrapping ships, tanks and aircraft was just because Labour had spent all of our money on Transexual Gypsy Liaison Officers:

One of the UK’s most senior naval officers has described the Armed Forces’ preparations to tackle climate change. Senior British Royal Navy Officer Rear Admiral Neil Morisettis, who also acts as the nation’s Climate and Energy Security Envoy, said the military was already training in readiness to deal with the effects of a warming world.

Well there’s a Rear Admiral’s desk you could cut nice and easily. He’ll be safely retired on a healthy pension by the time his purchases of sun-loungers and sombreros arrive at our Norwegian training bases.

“Collaborating on recognising and managing the impacts of climate change can help underpin the political resolve to tackle its causes. Hopefully, just as solar pv emerged from military/industrial innovation, we can also be part of the solution.”

So, as if we didn’t know already – our defence is being screwed over on a political fraud and hobbyhorse.

The whole thing is based on blatant lies.

…colleagues overseas have reported running out of helicopter hours mid-year due to the increased incidences of extreme weather events

Except in unfashionable unreported news we learned last week that the weather isn’t getting more extreme at all.

Frankly there’s enough bullshit in that article alone to fuel a Type42 destroyer for a month. Read the rest here. Or don’t. Don’t is your safer bet.
