Having just been to the Navy Careers Office with my son, the point above with the smiley is what they told us ( our waters meaning British waters around the world ) is quite current at present..

they provide humanitarian aid in time of disasters

RM also part of the navy

The most important part of the RN has been missed. Submarines. Operational, not decorational. The cold war is still on you know.

they would also provide support to the navys marines.evacuation support.but mostly at the moment are on training exercises around the globe.

and have frequent jollies around the world wasting tax payes money

Think back to the Falklands, that was only 25 years ago and was a naval war. We would not have been able to get there let along win there with out the RN. You never know where the next war is coming from so always have to be ready for all possible conflicts.

Also the fact that we are an island and an island with out a Naval force would be quite vulnerable and weak.
