Here's a story

Due to defence cuts and a renewed threat from the ex-Soviet Union, Suffolk Coastal has been asked to assist the MoD in recommissioning sea defences.

"With the threat of Russian invasion ever more likely, a robust and effective coastal defence network is essential." said a Mod spokesperson.

Plans are already being drawn up to bring the chain of Martello towers back up to operational level, turn the radar back on at Bawdsey and station a squadron of Spitfires at Bentwaters.

Overseeing the entire project is Sqn Ldr (ret) Reginald "Bonkers" Bumbury, a veteran of the Battle of Britain.

"These legendary defences saved us in some of our darkest hours, they've proven themselves," said Sqn Ldr Bumbury. "They're also shining examples of Britain working at its best, something all those Brexit doubters should take note of."

Obviously there are challenges. Laying mines in the sticky mud of Orford will be no easy task. However, local communities are being asked to provide support. Primary school children in Walberswick have recently taken part in a tank trap design competition, the winning entries of which will soon be on display along the beach up to Southwold.

Anybody seeing a Russian invasion force is asked to dial 101 as there's more likelihood they won't be put through to voicemail as so frequently happens with 999 calls.
