A couple of days ago I looked south and it or she was gone. There was no sign of the Isle of Portland. Just a bit of Weymouth bay.
If I can't see Portland maybe Vlad has stolen it. Towed it out into the Atlantic, up and round to Mermansk?
After all according to most newspaper commentators it is only a matter of time before his expansionist delusions lead to him occupying Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Belarus (hang on they are already on his side), Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, Austria (the Apple Strudel is delicious and worth risking a nuclear war for), Germany, Holland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden before he achieves his true aim of occupying the resource richest country this side of the Urals.
He is desperate for our rare earth assets. Lancashire coal, Cornish tin, Scottish Salmon and shortbread.
But his real greedy ambition is for our most valued resources: fish and chips. Some might argue steak and kidney although arguably a full English is more valuable. A pot of cockles is now worth a fortune so a few of those could be the true spoils of war.
Other than that there don't seem to be any resources worth having but we can be sure the head of the armed forces will still be able to convince us he needs to double if not treble the size of the army, build at least three more aircraft carriers together with some twenty frigates to escort each of them. (Sod the freezing pensioners they are too old to be conscripted but could be useful cannon feed).
Maybe this is one big mistake. Are we talking about Vlad the bare chested latter day soviet KGB guy or Vlad the impaler?
Confusing isn't it. |
