BNP might have to buy HMS Victory
HMS Victory belongs to the peopleNow as an ex matelot myself, I can tell you this. HMS Victory is the heart of the Royal Navy. I would rather see it become a burnt out floating hulk like the French fleet, it helped destroy at the Battle Of Trafalgar in 1805, then watch it become a Dysney style theme park.
It costs a measly million a year to keep this unique part of our history and culture looking good and open to the public of what was once the greatest sea faring nation the world has ever seen and that is the excuse the destroyers of Our Country wish to use to get rid of this reminder of Our Past.
The MoD argues that increasing budgetary pressures mean it must review Victory's future like any other ship.Now you would think that the Labour Portsmouth North MP, Sarah McCarthy-Fry would be rushing to safeguard probably the most famous site in Portsmouth. But no. The creature had this to say;
‘In today's climate when our troops are on prolonged operations I think it is right to question whether we should be using funding on what is essentially heritage.Words to describe this woman fail me. But looking at her record in Parliament I can see why she worries so much about money. She sucks our taxes up like a mosquito sucks up blood.
