Airstrip One

Now that Blair has put tanks on our streets, a few questions come to mind.

Why were other airports around London not guarded? If the terrorists had a missile and were primed to use it they could have just toddled off to Gatwick.

What good do tanks do against anti-aircraft missiles?

Now I am torn here. On the one hand I would like to say "told you so" and point to the price of the government's posturing in the Middle East being greater risks to us plebby taxpayers. However there appear to be too many holes in this story.

I'd say that this was just a photocall.
