The entirety of Europe, let alone the UK alone, could not sustain a war against the Russian Federation. When the body bags started to return to Brize Norton in their thousands, as they surely would, there would be a revolution.
THIS. IS. MADNESS.
Britain and France are preparing for the possibility of sending thousands of European troops into Ukraine as a "peacekeeping" force, and about 2,800 personnel from 11 countries are already lining up for an exercise in Poland to test it, even though there is no ceasefire and no deployment has been authorised
Those soldiers could reportedly be allowed to return fire if Russian forces attacked them, and NATO's own rules would not automatically drag America in, because Article 5 does not cover an attack on NATO personnel inside Ukraine
Britain's regular Army is down to about 74,000 and is already short of ammunition, armour and air defence, so London would be walking into a fight it may not be able to sustain
Reparations ? Gimme a break. £BILLIONS upon £BILLIONS upon £BILLIONS has been spent in Africa over the last 70yrs & yet they're still crossing a river in a plastic drum ?? 🤔
Proud is absolutely right. Farage (& indeed Badenoch) is making the same mistake that Trump has made in the US. Those Neo-Cons inside the Westminster bubble (& the DC Beltway) may want war but the public don't. They totally reject it. Vote loser.
@reformparty_uk @RaheemKassam
By aligning itself with the uniparty on the Ukraine war, @reformparty_uk has abandoned its claim to put Britain first. It has also crippled its ability to fix this country's problems should it gain power. @Nigel_Farage is morphing his party into cheeky chappie @Conservatives.
I suppose he could always try having a state visit to Ukraine. You know, the country he is supposed to live in & be President of. He is literally NEVER there anymore. Spends his time flying around the world with his Nazi begging bowl in hand.

Absolutely ratioed in the replies. Nobody is buying this moronic, Russophobic bullshit anymore.

“Russia wants to destroy the West.”
Matthew Syed of the Sunday Times warns we’re “tilting towards war” because of Russian hybrid warfare efforts in Europe.

There is something about Fry that I can’t quite put my finger on…….
It’s Friday so I’ve had a large glass & I’m going to have another. Chin chin. #Pezenas #Languedoc
Isn't Duncan-Smith always telling us what great friends the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar & the rest of the Gulf Arab dictatorships are to the UK.🤔
I have written to the Prime Minister, supported by 68 fellow MPs and Peers from across Parliament, calling for urgent intervention in the case of British citizen Ryan Cornelius.
Ryan is now 72 years old. He has already spent more than 18 years in a Dubai prison, and under his current sentence will not be released until 2038, when he will be 84. Seven UN human rights experts have called for his immediate release, warning that his deteriorating health puts him at risk of irreparable harm.
Our letter sets out clear steps the Government must now take, including a public request for his release ahead of UAE National Day on 2 December, and targeted sanctions if that request is refused. The Prime Minister must now respond and make clear what action the Government intends to take.
@10DowningStreet @FCDOGovUK
The full letter is below.
I bought a couple of these today but, I have to say, they are as poor quality as it’s possible to make. 100% flimsy paper & no pin. Fell apart before it had been worn. I don’t begrudge the money & I’ll buy another couple but, come on @PoppyLegion you can do better than this.
Like her or not she is 100% correct & the same applies here in the UK.
No more foreign wars.
No more £Billions sent abroad.
No more cronyism & corruption.
Secure our borders.
Reduce energy costs.
Reduce tax.
Im above the age that would be called up but, were I younger, my answer would be. Fuck Off !!
Brits who avoid WW3 call-up could face 'shame' and even employment issues

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The UK has no conscription and the government has no plans to reintroduce it. The article speculates on hypothetical future scenarios which it states are not currently being contemplated.

The Polish President is right.
🔴Le président polonais Karol Nawrocki 🇵🇱
Le président Zelensky a démontré que l'Ukraine, en termes de mentalité de glorification des bandits et des meurtriers de l'Armée insurrectionnelle ukrainienne, n'est pas prête à faire partie de la famille européenne.
Il n'y a pas de place dans la famille européenne pour des bandits et des meurtriers qui ont tué des femmes et des enfants, qui ont assassiné des Polonais.
De tels bandits ne peuvent pas être glorifiés, et l'UPA ne peut pas être glorifiée. x.com/FranceRsistanc…
The #Ukrainerussiawar, #IranWar & the catastrophic economical fallout they've caused did for Trump & the Republicans. Badenoch is exactly the same. She backs both & will continue spending £BILLIONS of your taxes on this folly. She is a puppet & a stooge. A ventriloquist's dummy.
