Military conscription

Yes, I'm afraid so. Despicable isn't he?

Can you link this speech?
Why is he not being more aggressive with Trump if he wants a war?
But then, people getting worked up about Davos and thinking we aren’t already a global society are a bit naive and led by conspiracists. .

Oh dear.

Ask yourselves why starmer so badly wants a war.

I guarantee that right now no one in Govt wants a war. We don’t have the man power, we don’t have the equipment and all the vehicles we’ve been waiting absolute years for are causing injuries to troops so are out of service atm. They’re probably all shitting themselves just incase one does happen, because we’d be up shit creek without a paddle.

Did he? Interesting, do you have a link to any follow-up or where that interpretation has been formed

I am sad they are no longer here but I wonder when they departed and if they witnessed the decline over the past 5 years

He made his little speech about our children having to be prepared to suffer as their grand and great grand parents did. He wants a war, of course he does. It ensures compliance for his globalist plans. Davos or Westminster? Remember?

No, nobody thinks it’s a good idea. In a theoretical sense some can see it might be necessary. Most also say it’s not helpful and that they don’t think there’ll be that kind of war.
If you don’t think it will ever happen why does it matter? You’re just trying to stir up anti U.K., anti government feeling. And it’s working.

Probably not the place for any seriousness, but Britain - certainly Great Britain - isn't really a natural invasion friendly island. The only two successful invasions in the past 1,000 years were not Nazi-style continental armies sweeping majestically across the plains as they did in mainland Europe (notice the word "mainland" there). In both cases they were almost surgical strikes that took out the leadership and then accepted the submission of the nobility. Once that was done, it was game over. There was some civilian resistance in the North, admittedly. But with the rest of England subdued that was no problem.

Mainland European countries have quite a different risk and history. And a defining characteristic of being "British" or "European" is the inbuilt relationship to that.

The only British people who can even faintly comprehend what an invasion and occupation of Britain looks like are channel islanders.

Starmer wants a war? Where the fuck do you get that from?

Ask yourselves why starmer so badly wants a war

Does he? What makes you think that?

They can go to hell. There's no way me and mine are fighting for a Britain that's utterly despised by globalist starmer and his cabal. See what successive so called governments have reduced the country to since the last wars. It wasn't worth it and I'm ashamed to say that because I totally respect those who fought and gave their lives.

Send snivelling starmer and his cronies to the front instead. Remember, a war ensures compliance from the next three generations. Ask yourselves why starmer so badly wants a war.

We're all being had.

So what’s the point then? Why wind people up with something you don’t believe to be true? Why start by saying there is lots of talk about it? Why not post that you think people talking about conscription are wrong?

So if the UK was under threat of invasion, you'd not want conscription because you don't like Starmer and co.? Or do you not agree with conscription generally, whoever is in power?

Which views are being demonised?

And if you think your children will be safe staying at home, you are also deluded. It won't be that sort of war.

I won’t fight or support the sending of my child to fight for a current Government who demonise every view I have. If you think Britain has the same values it did in the early 20th century when it was worth fighting for then I’ll give you your first Military Medal, in Naivety and Burying your Head in the sand.

Most of the racists were flying the English St George flag, not the Union Jack. And I for one object to them hi-jacking our flags and associating them with their nasty opinions. But a very clever tactic I mean you can't complain about someone 'patriotically' flying a flag can you?

I can remember how a lot the boys at school were saying it wasn't worth revising for their O levels in 1982 because they'd have to be conscripted because the Falklands had kicked off.

I think I know where their children ended up 😀

@Donotpanicoknowpanic won’t answer the question of how she would want this to pan out in the event of the WWIII scenario she herself set up in her opening post. She’s been asked several times and doesn’t respond to a scenario in which she and her children might very well die or be captured anyway if there is no conscription.

Just wants to rail at people who see conscription as a potential, terrible inevitability.

@Donotpanicoknowpanic . Nobody is talking about conscription except people trying to stir up anti U.K. and anti government feeling. The forces wouldn’t want conscripted anyway - warfare is too technical these days to throw untrained people at it. Yes, I know there’s hand to hand stuff with conscripts in Ukraine, but that’s desperation not planning and we have the advantage of being an island. It’s vanishingly unlikely anything like that would happen here. Stop winding yourself up.
Plus nobody thinks conscription is a good idea - they just recognise that in some desperate situations it’s necessary. Doesn’t mean they like it.

Nobody is called racist for ‘fly8ng the flag’. They are called racist for using the flag to enact their racist views and intimidate.
Nobody except people trying to wind themselves into an anti U.K. frenzy is talking about conscription anyway.

I don't think future wars will be about countries, they will be between a few billionaire or trillionaires who have control of everything and still demand more oil and minerals.
The world should have put limits on personal wealth years ago.
