I was going to say the MoD could secure Faslane using, jets from their aircraft carriers, but they neither have carriers nor suitable jets to proceed in that direction, I wonder if the supposed deal to use French Carriers is still valid.
Either way we have the Waverley steam ship..a formidable, leviathan.

ianbeag, I would like to know exactly what kind of pressure was brought on the BBC. BTW anybody who is to young to remember the name of Helen Liddell should look it up, she was a real peace of work.
(John Smith, as Privy Council minister, was in overdrive, co-opting Helen Liddell as secretary of the Scottish Labour to use her influence as a recent BBC staffer), says it all really.
I served Helen Lidl once, at a massive New Labour fundraiser in a prestigious Glasgow hotel in the late winter of 96/7. (With baby potatos, french beans, and deep-fried asparagus tips. She went down a treat.)
If only…at least then her existence would’ve generated some pleasure.
Ah, the lady transported to Oz -‘For Services Rendered’, I’d bet Julia Gillard is absolutely delighted that she took her advice and brought John McTernan to Oz! Nasty is, as nasty does!
Great Hamish ‘toon. I’m still wondering what kind of mascot the No campaign will come up with to compete with Wings’ Hamish, NNS’ Duggy Dug and Yes Scotland’s Yessie.
If that Hellen Liddel was at Strathclyde, she spent most of her time in the Lounge, just beyond the beer bar necking at tonguing her “beau”.
She was also very skelly.

I think the lion has the right idea. Beat them to the punch and annex MOD HQ.
So, apologies, and back on topic, lovely cartoon again Chris, gaun yersel’ Hamish, I’ll get yer back…
Dinna be sniping at oor Hamish wih yer big guns at thon top table wih the big boys, eh!

Oh oh… here come the bendy Wendy cavalry.
Wait…wait…wait…
@ Stuart Black – Great link and definitely worth a read. I am sure Rev Stu will forgive you.
Hamish might be at the wrong address, The MoD could sell off that building before he gets there according to this Torygraph story.
And in an unrelated find, it’s deja vu all over again in this piece from the Spectator’s archives: link to archive.spectator.co.uk
The time might have come to remobilise the Glesca Eskimo Regiment!

Helen Liddell… what nightmares are made of.
Hail Alba
Robert Kerr
…but enjoyed seeing her walk into the Gents’ toilet after her then boss, Robert Maxwell.
It’s Helen Lidl, actually.
Not to be confused with her sister, Ellen Aldi.
@Seanair-
‘…but enjoyed seeing her walk into the Gents’ toilet after her then boss, Robert Maxwell.’
Aye. We are all eternally grateful that she wasn’t following him when he was on that yacht.
I served Helen Lidl once, at a massive New Labour fundraiser in a prestigious Glasgow hotel in the late winter of 96/7. (With baby potatos, french beans, and deep-fried asparagus tips. She went down a treat.)
If only…at least then her existence would’ve generated some pleasure.
Helen Lidl
She got herself a big hoose in Tighnabruaich when she was in her prime . The locals called it Maxwell House
Ah, the lady transported to Oz -‘For Services Rendered’, I’d bet Julia Gillard is absolutely delighted that she took her advice and brought John McTernan to Oz! Nasty is, as nasty does!
Lamont = Liddell reincarnated sans wallies.
La Liddell was also known as ‘Stalin’s Granny’
O/T came across this,

This’ll definitely put the wind up bitter together.
