British navy struggles to stay afloat, only 2 destroyers operational
2024-12-18


[Straight Arrow News] The British Royal Navy’s operational capacity has reached a historic low, with only two of its six advanced Type 45 destroyers available for deployment, according to the U.K.’s Ministry of Defense. The other four destroyers are undergoing extensive repairs and maintenance at Portsmouth.
The number of Admirals in the Navy massively outnumbers the number of ships. Says all you need to know.

#6  Not likely, Mr. Bobby. They keep turning budgets in the black and accumulating chits, they can just purchase them back from the bankrupt British Socialist/Immigrants

#1  A metaphor for Biden/Harris, who don't really appear to be operational.

Kamala Harris laughs at her own 'the context in which you exist' word salad: 'Yeah, I did that'

The cocaine is strong in that one.
