I remember them saying exactly the same in the 90s over Iraq

I can't, I have asthma.

Can you do it on a zero hours contract ?

People who have been knighted are now to be given a horse and sword and will lead vast herds of JD sport bag toting privates into deadly combat.

They’d probably sanction your Universal Credit if you went away to war

Can't wait to see tiktoks of our brave youngsters getting shot to bits while they cry about their ADHD meds.


We're doomed

Get all the Walter Mittys with a Union Jack and Ukraine flags on Twitter in first, all the patriots should surely be chomping at the bit for a chance to defend their country.

You've gotta love this country. Our government cut back our armed forces to the point that the combined total of service men and woman probably wouldn't fill Wembley stadium, and then go and get into a argument with a country that has over a million active troops. If it all kicks off over here, we'd be depending on drunken football hooligans to defend the nation!

Will Joseph Barton be a platoon leader?

You wouldnt need any weapons to win the war just turn their WiFi off or close the salon where they get their eyebrows trimmed.
