THREAD!!
This is a big development. I'd be very worried about this Paddy. Why, you ask? Well its like this. QE is scheduled to be on its maiden voyage of the SCS signifying freedom of navigation. I suspect the Chinese would be less tolerant of British adventurism as compared to American adventurism.
After all they like is have bitter memories of colonialism & particularly of the Brits courtesy those 100 years of humiliation & the opium wars. If we know the Chinese they're itching to repay you with interest.
A couple of AShBMs & ka boom. That's 15-20 billion USD down SCS. BJ is screwed whichever way you see it - the economy, Brexit, The Chinese virus, British military or what remains of it, the pride of your armed forces - RN recently humiliated by Iran of all countries , Brit prestige, etc
Chinese sailors are suffering from serious psychological disorders aboard South China Sea submarines, a recent study found
The study by Chinese researchers found that roughly 1 in 5 Chinese submariners in the South China Sea had some form of psychological disorder.
This is what the RN is expected to face soon in it's FONOPs thru the SCS, Paddy. @BMD
It's almost a shame I have him on ignore, if only there was a way to temporarily switch off the feature every April 1st.
If you at the pic of the submarine rear, you will know that this is not a hydrodynamic shape and no one ever build a submarine with such horrible drag creating shape.
It took you a long time to do that. Anyway, you can't see it, but he's managed to trip thrice in three consecutive posts.
Took the first post seriously, looks confused in the second post, and then doesn't realise he's already on ignore in the third post. Don't worry, he's gonna say he was being sarcastic all along. Apparently, he feels 2022 is gonna go bad for him, doesn't realise it's the same in 2021 as well.
Confused in the 2nd post is about right. For all the wrong reasons.After all ever since the Chinese virus all bets are off. 2024 or 2025 or any future date is the new 2022 for resident optimists now.
Like all Bluffmasters turned eternal optimist about ones conning skills, in house optimist should log on to Twitter to see the tweet immediately following the one I've posted here from the same source.
But why should I - resident optimist. I'm too clever by half. I know everything. What I don't know isn't worth knowing? I became the most successful goal keeper by constantly shifting goal posts. Cancer ka ilaaj hain, par mera koi ilaaj nahin.

Correction. He tripped up on 4 posts. Looks like this day is dedicated to some people.
"Shifting goal posts" when a wholly different sport is being played. Somehow I don't see the word "sarcasm" anywhere.
Oh, there's news for people. HTT-40, it's apparently gonna be signed when? ...... 2022.
Hold on to your hats for the commissioning of the Type 100 in 2022, folks. The Chinese will be rejoicing in the Year of the Tiger, apparently my year according to some, but I'm not complaining.
