No, @rosie__mrsk, the reason is utterly dull. I think the incident ludicrous, and I think saying 'macaroon' instead of 'macarena' adds to its absurdity. Some people will be amused. Some won't. Others will leadenly correct me. — PolitiTweet.org

@MKnelmes What are 'officers without caseloads', Maurice? All officers have a duty to prevent crime, and if not otherwise engaged they should be out on foot, patrolling the streets, the job the police were set up to do. No sign of that the last three times I was in Lincoln. — PolitiTweet.org

@bellaococ23 . It is perfectly possible to grieve for the deaths of police officers in the line of duty, and to be critical of aspects of the police. Even journalists get killed in the line of duty, but that doesn't mean that nobody should criticise our shortcomings. — PolitiTweet.org

@johnedwards0955 @benhabib6 @ClarkeMicah The RN carriers were designed to be part of a US carrier group, in a supporting role.

Nope, the aircraft which are paraded on these ships are either borrowed from the US marines or from RAF land-based units. If you prefer official estimates to those of Reuters, which I note you don’t mention, that is your lookout. — PolitiTweet.org

Ben Habib @benhabib6

@ClarkeMicah They do have aircraft. And the figures are a fraction of the nonsensical CND estimates.

Who said it *was* threatening @stephens111? Here's the point, yet again. Police ceaselessly plead shortage of manpower and time when asked why they no longer bother to respond to crime. Actually they have both manpower and time, just prefer to use them on other things. — PolitiTweet.org

You mean, it upsets your preconceptions @benhabib6 . https://t.co/12cCysRj4X . Cost of new carriers, a far smaller project, began in 2007 at estimate of £3.9 billion. Ended up at £6.2 billion and they *still* have no aircraft. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah Peter the figure doesn’t make any sense. The order of magnitude is just all wrong. Absurd.

Reuters estimate at £167,000,000,000 was a good deal closer to CND's than to the government's. The cost will be colossal @benhabib6 — PolitiTweet.org
