What a situation, Andrew Neil offers the current naval capability of the UK

The current state of the Royal Navy:
2 aircraft carriers — neither operational.
6 Type 45 destroyers (our most powerful warships) — one operational (in Cyprus).
7 Type 23 frigates (less powerful, much older) — three operational
5 Astute class nuke-powered subs — one operational (in Arabian Sea?).
Surely those responsible for this appalling state of unreadiness (a national embarrassment if ever there was one)— political, civilian and military — should be fired/charged.
Their incompetence has effectively left us without a navy.
Quite an achievement for an ancient island nation

"Sorry Sir, dog ate my homework". Record of Government business not backed-up, conveniently lost within a short time after it became apparent that that record would be needed, specifically the record of messages in relation to the flawed appointment of a crucial Government role, that of US Ambassador. Even worse when the person largely responsible for the appointment was appointing a good friend yet, oh dear, no backup and phone stolen in a "timely manner".

I'm sure that in the history of education it has happened that a dog ate somebody's homework.

Given the minuscule numbers this affects, this feels like Mahmood making anti-black-foreigner noise for performative reasons, with no real logical justification.
