‘Oh, Britannia, Britannia rules the seas’ – not.
We have been reporting here on TGP on how the British armed forces – particularly its once legendary Royal Navy – is depleted and unprepared for war.
Yesterday, a shocking report arose saying that the entire fleet of hunter-killer submarines is ‘stuck in port, unable to sail’ – leaving Britain at risk from today’s threats.
Daily Mail reported:
“In a fresh humiliation for Britain’s Armed Forces, all five of its Astute class submarines are currently laid up awaiting maintenance and other repair work.
Military experts have also warned that the Navy’s lack of available nuclear-powered attack submarines – which carry up to 38 Spearfish torpedoes and a battery of Tomahawk missiles – leaves the UK’s sub-sea internet and power cables dangerously vulnerable to sabotage by [Russia].”
