We expose lax security at home of £700m RAF fighter bombers
AN RAF station where the country's new nuclear-armed jets will be based is protected by a 5ft wooden fence.
The flimsy barrier is 300 metres from the runway at RAF Marham, Norfolk.
Our revelation comes just weeks after protesters were arrested for causing £7million of damage to aircraft at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire.
The fence at RAF Marham can be accessed by five gaps in a hedge in a farmer's field.
We visited the spot this week and stood there for 30 minutes but no security guard came to check on us. The rest of the base is surrounded by 18-foot barbed-wire fences.
