I particularly like the part where he says "Each weekend, the tranquillity of the Welsh countryside is shattered by inane jets screaming through the mountain valleys playing at Lord of the Rings. With modern bombs, no plane need fly that low"

Anyone who doesn't realise that low level flight is done to avoid radar detection rather than for bombing accuracy has absolutely no business commenting on military matters. And to think he 'helped' with the 1997 defence review.

My late father told me about people like Simon Jenkins and what they did in the 1930s.

"$%^&ing appeasers" they were called...

Be nice is some of Labour's loony left took their cue from this. Give the Coalition a lot more breathing space if the reds went back to spouting this sort of banal pacifism.
