    Mike,
    When things like this happen there is serious change on a daily basis which you guys know about too, things we as mere mortals don't fully understand, with the deceit and wheeler dealing that goes on in the halls of power, however, I note the front runner Boris Johnson ex Lord Mayor of London, has dropped out as the knife went firmly into his back by his running colleague in the Get out of Europe campaign Mr Gove.
    So not sure where we'll be when this Government decide who they want as the leader of their party or indeed who is to be the next British Prime Minister.
    I probably have to put my money on Theresa May the Home Secretary, who controls everything security. She has held that office the longest in its history and in my view, has done a good job and she is a tough cooky, just what we need at the moment.

    Whoever gets it, they need to put the Great back into Britain.
    Having lived and worked in the Military in the south East of Englandicon all my life, I was saddened to see that Obama or Congress want to close so many American bases here in England. Four around where I live, including the major U.S. Transport hub at USAF/RAF Mildenhall.
    Currently the home for refuellers and AWACs. Lakenheath is staying and the new fighter wings will be based there, but out of the two, Mildenhall has the longer runway and more facilities and easy access.
    I did note though that when Air Force 1 came in recently he landed at Stansted Airport, perhaps he wanted lesser of a journey into London to see Her Majesty the Queen, he didn't fancy stopping off on base for a quick Bud.
    Sorry to digress, but Molesworth the major Intelligence centre is going to.
    Will Trump or Clinton whoever gets in, reverse the changes and cutbacks, or will world terror do that and everything will remain the same............hope so, got some good friends on most of the bases, and BBQ's and the steaks they bring from the PX just don't stack up next to our scrawny British ones
