I liked the reason he gave that boarding operations have ceased pending an enquiry. Enquire into what? The Royal Navy has been boarding vessels for hundreds of years - they should have an idea how to do it by now. The twat didn't mention that the reason the British navy has stopped boarding suspect vessels is that the Iranians have still got our boats and there probably aren't any to replace them as this penny pinching bunch of scumbags won't supply the equipment to do the job. What an absolute disgrace. This Labour government has a lot to answer for. Roll on the next general election.
A definite case of 15 donkies being led by even a bigger more stupid donkey, no wonder we are the world’s laughing stock.
