  1. 1-2 years ago “The number of warships being built in Scotland is too low” was a pro-independence slogan. Now it appears to be too high 🙂

    Also, they should pay the shipyard workers more. HMS Babcock can afford it right now.

  2. For context, UK engineering and manufacturing salaries would need to basically double (at least) to be on parr with US/Canadian/Australian equivalents.

    Even lagging against European peer countries.

  3. meanwhile, in pestminster:

    “uugh, but, them dumb plebs! they work without tailored suits and lift stuff! that means they stoooopid”
