Apart from airliners, who are they planning on shooting down?

Just park a Type 45 in the Thames 🙂

Yes. Seriously.

A thread without any info on its content in the title or OP.

I believe this is called ‘security theatre’.

But strangely, a hyper-link you can click on which will tell you all you need to know.

What will they think of next? 🙄

I’m too busy for that shit zokes 😛

Slightly worrying, but hey ho.

I’m too busy for that shit zokes

Apparently not. 😕

I’ve offered up my shed as a command centre

‘security theatre’

What, “theatre” as in people playing out scripted fantasies loosely based on real life ?

Just park a Type 45 in the Thames

HMS Ocean is going to be parked in the Thames – the only operational T45 that is available would be
HMS Dragon, and they’ve got other stuff on

as far as you know…
there’s a type 46 parked in my fish tank

They really are using every opportunity to create fear to rule by.

I can’t decide if this is any worse than labour putting tanks outside airports.

There is one on the mersey now, should I be worried? 8)

Who are “they”?

The lizards, obviously.

Understood.

No – The Matlows should be more worried about the locals nicking anything that isn’t bolted down!

Who are “they”?

The government, quite obvious really, who do you think gets to make decisions about placing missiles on apartment blocks.

Good point – I forgot about the Lego one on my desk at work!

That’s a relief as I thought it might have been party specific.

Are you really so dumb to have not noticed that I compared the current band of clowns in charge with the last band of clowns.

But keep trolling away.

Iranian MiGs

The Olympics will provide them with a hard to resist opportunity in their quest for world domination.

Iranian planes wouldn’t make it out of Irania before they were shot down.

Could they bring down a suicide-bombing muslamic swan, from muslamia ?

I think that’s my major fear right now

Matlows

Matelots!
* whistles Matey bubble bath tune.

Could they bring down a suicide-bombing muslamic swan, from muslamia ?

I think that’s my major fear right now

A swan fitted with Muslamic ray-guns?

Iranian planes wouldn’t make it out of Irania before they were shot down.

Damn. That shoots my theory to pieces then.

I’m not quite sure that’s the purpose of an SAM, but whatever works for you… 😆

I think our security forces have been on the X Box playing Call Of Duty 😉

I mean really, if a bloke with a rucksack wants to blow up loads of people in a public place how exactly is a surface to air missile supposed to help?

Or if another bloke with a Stanley knife hijacks a plane, they’ll blow it up with a missile- bringing it down on a load of houses.

Retards….. 🙄

……..how exactly is a surface to air missile supposed to help?

It keeps everyone on their toes. It’s important to keep everyone on their toes.

It shows we mean business.

Truly an incisive summary of anti-aircraft operations. Thank you. Will you be on Question Time this week?

I applaud:

– The tin foil hat fear brigade. You make me feel less mad. I wish I could make you feel safer, but I doubt anything would ever do that for you.

– The armchair experts who suddenly have a valid opinion on providing security for the biggest international event ever to have taken place in the UK.

Your country needs you all and I thank you for your sacrifices so far.

A swan fitted with Muslamic ray-guns?

None of the messing around just breaking your arm, they can now vaporise you?

Will you be manning any surface-to-air missiles during the Olympics TooTall ?

If so, I did liked to thank you and all those involved in “anti-aircraft operations” during the Olympics.

It’s thanks to guys like you that I can sleep at night.

The lengths they go to stop cheating at these Olympics, the pole vaulters and high jumpers better be weary!
