It's A Pass The Buck Orgy For UK Warmongers

Brown Breaks The News About Army Redundancies
Around 1,020 Navy personnel were told yesterday they were being made redundant, with around 350 job losses being mandatory. Moreover, 810 sailors applied for redundancy out of whom 670 were accepted. Furthermore, forming part of the 22,000 military forces cut, the Navy is planning to cut 5,000 jobs by 2015.
British defence secretary, Liam Fox, said former senior military staff were to blame for the military job losses which is due to a £5bn cut to the military budget. Referring to Labour military chiefs, Fox said: “I think the MoD consistently dug a hole for itself that it eventually found that it could not climb out of.” He' s actually right about that but.....
Former head of the Navy, Lord West, criticised the job losses describing them “dangerous” as he maintained that it was “no good blaming things in the past.” West asserted that military forces should be placed at the top of the government's agenda urging British Prime Minister David Cameron to “put one's money where one's mouth is.”
“It's sad for the people involved, obviously, 300 of them are compulsory... these are people who were willing to sacrifice their lives for the nation. It's a bit worrying that 800 said they would voluntarily go. It's a bit worrying that they felt there was not a future for them,” said West.
“We have cut and cut and cut for many years and I think we are in real danger of cutting so deeply that we are unable to do things that we require as a nation,” added West, who was security minister in the last Labour administration.
Bizarrely, Labour's shadow defence secretary, Jim Murphy called on Fox to “take responsibility for his actions” and stop shifting the blame. Labour presided over the spending and strategy disasters for 13 years Murphy hopes we have forgotten. He said: ''Liam Fox is not the victim but the author of his defence review which has left holes in our equipment programme and is sacking thousands of service personnel, including those who have served on the frontline,” said Murphy.
Meanwhile, as British Military staff are faced with job losses and cuts to their budget, and new analyses have shown that British government's role in the invasion of Libya is to cost British taxpayers £1.75bn, neither Labour leaders nor coalition officials questioned Britain's role in invading countries like Libya, Iraq, and Afghanistan. In other words, they are across the board hypocrites and impostors.
