They’re droning on about drones on LBC Radio. They’re
blathering away at the dangers of misusing these boys-toys. Apparently, they are
permitted to fly up to a height of 120 meters in cities such as London.
Iain Dale, in keeping with his true-blue Tory agenda,
announced that he will be speaking to Lord Tebbit, an ex-airline pilot, on the
dangers drones pose. On comes Tebbit and begins to lay into the misuses of
drones.
Aside from their intrusiveness, there are nutters who
use them to interfere with commercial planes landing and taking off. Fair
enough, Norm. I’m with you on that one. However, he reserved his real opprobrium
for their use by terrorists.

| The ultimate in toys for the boys |
With no irony intended Tebbit went on to say that terrorists
could load drones with explosive materiel and fly them into crowds of innocent civilians.
Yes, Lord Tebbit, the US and UK armed forces have been successfully using
drones to slaughter innocent people in Afghanistan and Iraq for years. Though I
doubt these were the terrorists that you had in mind.
