How do you fit a barcode on a strawberry lace?

My guess is there's been the suggestion of a cut in defence spending and the military reaction is BUT THERE'S GOING TO BE A WAR!!!

'Robot soldiers could make up quarter of British army by 2030s'


https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...-defence-chief


[Thirty thousand “robot soldiers” could form
an integral part of the British army in the 2030s,
working alongside humans in and around the frontline,
the head of the armed forces said
in a television interview on Sunday.
Gen Sir Nick Carter said the armed forces
needed “to think about how we measure effects
in a different way” – and he called on the government
to proceed with the previously
promised five-year integrated defence review.
Speaking to Sky News on the morning
of Remembrance Sunday, the chief of the defence staff
suggested that “an armed forces
that’s designed for the 2030s” could
include large numbers of autonomous or remotely controlled machines.
“I mean, I suspect we could have an
army of 120,000, of which 30,000 might be robots,
who knows?”
Carter said, although he stressed he was not
setting any particular target in terms of future numbers.]
