The Para's and the Royal Marines are the cream of the regular armed forced of the UK and are the main sources of recruits for the SAS and SBS

They are the tip of the spear

And #cummmings wants to decimate both with ultra harsh cuts

Leaving the UK vulnerable
The Para's aren't just guys that jump out of planes

The Marines aren't just guys who land by beach

These are the shock troops

The guys who go in first, backed up by Artillery, tanks and jets

Or sometimes go in alone and do the impossible
Only the infantry hold ground

Tanks can't
Jets can't
Helicopters can't

And Drones will not be able to either

There is no technological solution to a bunch of highly motivated and well trained men on the ground with rifles, MGs with some portable anti-tank/anti-air missiles
Think about it

Who did the US use when the Nazis attacked in the battle of the bulge?

The 101st airborne (us para's)

Who did the British army use for the Battle of Goose Green?

2 Para

Cummings wants rid of them because the Russians fear them and the Royal Marines
