    Brexit bill EUR 100 billion
    The English tax payer shall also be asked to pay Scotland and Welsh an extra £2billion. Cough up you lot.

      ...whoops! 5000 BAE Engineers have no follow on project.

      They can probably focus their energies on a new customs and excise system.

      Seriously?! Recall working on the Eurofighter project. Feck me BAE Warton supports thousands of jobs for the in service aircraft across the continent. It is not just the building them that creates job but far more so the maintaining them. This would be a major loss for the UK.

      What a complete mess.

        Don't forget the U-17 either but stick your fingers in your ears when it comes to the U-21
        Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              It is a popular statement. The ability to strike at small targets is commendable.

              I'd like to see a UAV match a full ordnance bombing run of a B52. When you have to absolutely kill every mother £$£@£ in the room, accept no substitutes.

              Saying that it is only a matter of time before the UK sees a UAV drone like terror attack with home made plastic explosives or chemical attack.

                Oh that's right - it doesn't exist.

                Well there you go, Russian seats or British seats. Let's see who they choose.

                  B52 - lol that old bitch carries a punch.

                  Trouble is they are a bit of a radar give away, unlike a small stealthy drone.

                  Best not discuss the last point.

                    And then going back out of service 5 minutes later for repairs.

                    The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter: One of America's Worst Fighter Jets Ever?


                    The Harrier jump jets the Tories flogged to the yanks can take off carrying more ordnance.

                    Harrier jump-jets sold 'for peanuts' - No one screws the country over better than the Tories. Go ahead, vote for them again why not.

                      The re-armament of Luftwaffe will require lots of ejector seats....

                      So they'll choose German seats made by Martin Baker GmbH.

                      Owners of the company will be happy as Larry paying flat dividend rate of 25% in Germany instead of 38% in UK.
