You know, in this time of (mild) tension....I really cannot understand the thinking behind all this scrapping business. After all, it's not as if we have anything as yet built to replace her with. And it's not as if "Liverpool" is an outdated WW2 ship. Even though the decision to withdraw/sell/scrap her was made many months/years ago....can't minds be changed? Or is "loss of face" a factor. I just find the entire notion of our Defence being money driven quite abhorrent.
None of this will affect me personally, but it will surely impact on my children and grandchildren. Poor sods. BY.
