Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Trident, should we, or shouldn't we?

If we need to use it, it's not a deterrent is it?

If we decide to use it first, then you have to be a psychopath to kill hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians.

I don't buy the "influence" argument either - strikes me very much as willy waving.

Get rid. Spend the money on the armed forces - like making sure they're properly equipped and looked after post-conflict etc. And then there would still be billions left over to spend on other stuff.

They view it as a no brainer in that it makes them and their friends lots of money if this blog is to be believed. I don't know much about Commonspace so they might be complete mentalists but what they say doesn't take a huge stretch of the imagination
