This is a beautiful vessel. Now all we need is some planes to stick on top of it.

The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Who's blaming Corbyn? You said

which was clearly a reference to the Tories and DC's "all in it together".

I'm just pointing out that it was Labour who ordered it. Don't get me wrong, I would have too. But your snidey comment was misplaced I'm afraid. Zero points.

I understand Archimedes' principle but it always amazes me that these monsters float. The engineering that must go into the design of these ships... the mind boggles.

Upthecity!

Both cities have canals, so we should be ok.

They've got to get it under the Forth Bridge with only 50 cm clearance between the sea floor and the keel . 50 cm tolerance on something that big! Obviously a male pilot

We could Park it in Morecambe Bay and use it to launch tactical air strikes.

And once they're on board we need to pick a fight with someone, and show the world that Great Britain is still a military superpower!..........I think we should start here.


Whilst the whole of the Western world has been busy tackling terrorism, these groups have been going around taking the piss and doing exactly what the fvck they want. It's time they were brought into line. And with this new weapon at our disposal, we should show everyone that we are the boys to sort them out.

Have you f*ck!!

You can't justify it because you can't point your finger at Jeremy Corbyn.

He's your favourite scapegoat.

If/when he becomes PM you'll be doing a Perch/Bluey

I think you've mixed me up with Pikey thingammy again.

All I said was that the plans for the aircraft carrier were made a long time ago (when Labour were in power) so we can hardly blame the Tories for the cost.

Also, are you sure it cost 6bn? According to wikipedia it's 3.1bn.

Ah, I see the 6bn figure on the BBC website, but it's for 2 carriers. This one's 3.1bn.

But yes, I vaguely remember the talk about sharing it with France.

And then the cost of putting the most expensive planes in the world ever on top of them. And they'll need wifi - Sky will charge them a fortune for roaming costs.

You've got to think we'd have other priorities, but if makes our leaders feel all colonial and patriotic then fair enough.

Great boost for the ship yards who have been involved though.
