"The Brits" haven't volunteered troops for Ukraine. Sir Keir "I'll never admit I got it wrong" Starmer has proposed the idea...to virtually universal condemnation.

They've only got a limited amount of air time...

Sadly true. Decades of underfunding and "woke" have left us in a precarious position.

@karltaylor7378 "Surprised" isn't really the word. More "horrified". Barely over 200K (including the TA)...considerably fewer than numerous countries with much smaller populations than the UK. ...More horses than tanks in the British Army...more Admirals than ships in the Royal Navy. Anyway, it's not so much the "quantity" than the "quality" that's the major concern. I mean, can you imagine what would happen if an army of "Generation Pronouns" faced off against battle-hardened Russian troops? It doesn't bear thinking about...

@dannygaskin5806 I'm not quite sure where you think I'm from, but I am from the UK. Funding might increase under Starmer...starting from a very low base after years and years of penny pinching which started even before the Argentine war. Maybe we have got some "good tech"...but it's only as good as the people who operate it. After many years of systematic "wokeification" of our armed forces (and society in general, if I'm honest), I'm afraid I don't have a lot of faith in the troops, officers or political management of our services. Anyway, hiding behind "tech" is not the basis of a solid army. When it comes to the crunch, you need people with bollocks not button pushers.

@TheAArmstrong Why is it important where in the UK I'm from?

@TheAArmstrong Why would you say that?
