BRITAIN’s only two amphibious landing ships will be safe from military cuts, Defence Secretary Gavin Williamson announced.
He told Tory conference that HMS Albion and HMS Bulwark would not be withdrawn from service early amid fears they were facing the scrapyard to make savings. And he named a new 6,900-tonne anti-submarine warship frigate as HMS Birmingham.
Mr Williamson also unveiled plans for a new cyber cadets scheme that will equip 2,000 officers to protect the nation against increasingly sophisticated online threats.
Around 2,000 cadets a year will be trained on a £1 million GCHQ programme, he announced in his first conference speech as Defence Secretary.
He said: “We live in a modern world where our phones are rarely out of our hands and we rely on computers to make daily tasks easier.
“Cyber threats to the UK are constantly evolving and this exciting initiative to train and develop ‘cyber cadets’ – the first of its kind in a Nato state – reaffirms our leading role in tackling security threats head on.
“It is important to recognise the vital role cadets play in our communities, and I am determined to grow the number of young people signing up and make sure their successes are properly recognised each year.”
He added: “This programme has been designed with GCHQ and the National Cyber Security Centre. 2,000 cadets a year will be trained in cyber security.
“Teaching young people skills, they need to succeed in today’s world. This investment in cadets is an investment in the future of our young people.”

Mr Williamson also announced that the UK would be maintaining a military presence in Germany.
Around 185 British Army personnel and 60 MoD civilians will remain in Germany, once the withdrawal of British Army units to the UK has been completed.
He said: “We are increasing our British points of presence across the world. We will not close our facilities in Germany and are will instead we keep them open and forward base the Army there.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
