Jack and Condi’s first stop is a BAe Systems factory making parts for the new-generation F-35 Joint Strike Fighter.

There is nothing to see but a video of a milling machine that, we are told, is accurate to 50 microns, one third of the width of a human hair.

Condi's hair, of course, is immaculate when she comes in dressed in a mauve trouser suit and pearls.

Against the backdrop of the Union flag and the Stars and Stripes, the message is that of top-level co-operation among allies. But there is a snag: the Americans will not give the Brits the computer codes for the aircraft, and the Government is very cross.
