#2 Thank Labour for selling us down the river and providing inadequate resources for our armed forces . Des Browne is the most ineffectual , spineless , gutless wonder to have ever stepped foot into the shoes of Defence Secretary .
Shame on him , bring back Maggie ..

#4 Is the Prime Minister's given name, "Des", short for despicable? I'd assume so, considering how the UK is treating its military. A clue, Des: you cannot 'rent' a national defense force. You have to spend real money on it, in its conception, its operations, and for the retirement of those who make the military their career. You need boots on the ground to win wars, not complaisant generals and admirals. If you can't understand that, you shouldn't be Prime Minister.

#5 OP,

Des isn't the PM he's the Defense minister they share an antonymic last name.

PM Gordon (aka Dum* **it) Brown and Des (aka *^&^&*$^%**%%($$##^@(**) Browne.
