Agreed. There is no logical reason for the UK to have an aircraft carrier.

However, if the UK ceases to have a CV, it will be forced to stop pretending that the Royal Navy is still first class or that the UK is still a major international player.

plus there is the matter of the REAL enemy:

no way the UK will go without an aircraft carrier as long as the Frogs have one!
