Apparently it is a thriving industry in some parts of the world. Well apparently Badger....what you have to understand is that the House of Saud can't wage war unless the big beefy UK allows them to. There are no ways around it...You see it's just an impossibility...Without those UK Typhoons they are done for. Strange how they designed their military capacity to be contingent upon one nation's political decisions but there you go....Maple has spoken on it. Pipe dream anyway....their money would leave London quicker than a Biden sniff. So it wouldn't only be pointless it would be self harming. 'Who are you and how did you get in here? I'm a locksmith.

The blood of innocent yemenis is clearly upon the UK's hands. Latest to pull out Italy, only the UK ants to continue using every legal trick to do so. To what end is this, tory ministers pulling out all the stops to keep their ability to deal with genocidal regimes.

The Chinese, the Russians, all those who we don't want to gain favour with the Saudis. There is posturing and then there is reality. In an ideal world, trade in weaponry would be outlawed but as you often fail to realise, this is not an ideal world.
