UK army living in fear....of UK public

I've been reading Private Eye magazine and came across
an interesting result of the Woolwich killings.

The army is trying to put up fences and guards, maybe
even holding guns, to protect its bases, not in Helmand,
but in London and around the boondocks.

bases "unguarded at the rear" "training areas open to
the public"

How's that for paranoia?
"is that a game of rugby or 
a scrum for a terrorist attack?"

to some degree, it is silly for the army to lose its cherished
stuff. Apparently there's so little oversight at bases that 
thieves have stolen £280 000 of stuff.

Land Rovers, dryers, helmets
