GOVERNMENT CUTS IN THE U.K.

No doubt you've heard the news about the planned huge government budget cuts in the U.K....

Fascinating. Social changes ready to swing into action.

It is going to be interesting to see how the average Brit reacts or "puts up" with the biggest cuts in over 30 years.

Other proposals or "adjustments" put forth, and ones involving the traditionally proud British military services...

* Ark Royal (an aircraft carrier) is to be sent to the breakers.
* The Nimrod (long-range surveillance aircraft) is to be cancelled.
* The Harrier "jump jet" is to be retired.
