This is just another in a long line of somewhat awkward "Vote Tory, Get Tory" moments for Englands electorate. Some of whom will undoubtedly have changed tack on immigration based on the fact that Ukranians aren't brown, and will be surprised to learn their MP doesn't share their new found humanity.

Especially as our Foreign Secretary has just announced that we can all go and fight the defence against Russia if we want. Not her, you understand, or our armed forces, but if wee Bob can raise a crisis loan to fund his travel expenses, he's more than welcome to go abroad and get killed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is peoples chat about how easily they would be willing to kill and maim getting worse these days or am I just noticing it more as I grow older and consider that i'd prefer to go through life with minimal killings on my conscience? Don't think anyone aside from a few nutters think it would be easy but I'm sure there will be plenty folk who think it's the right thing to do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it unprecedented for someone in her position to say something like this? Surely the correct thing for a British politician to say would be that we do not advise British citizens to travel to a warzone since it is dangerous and we cant offer you any support if you do? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 That is genuinely quite amazing that liz truss is telling civilians to go to Ukraine to fight when the uk have categorically ruled out actual military support. staggering, really. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Angelo Barksdale Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I for one am old enough to remember last week when the Home Secretary said she was putting checks in at UK airports to stop Far Right extremists travelling to Ukraine to fight. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a thread looking to establish an inventory of skills possessed by members of the P&B community. As far as I recall no-one has claimed expertise in urban guerilla warfare. Perhaps they haven't posted because they are painstakingly making their way to the war zone, in which case we should salute their heroism and their modesty. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you really expecting our shitty government to work better overseas in a war torn country? All they are good for is putting out inaccurate tweets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
