i have been watching sky news for the last hour or so (around 7pm) and what a joke they are...
firstly......
they covered the return of 3 para back to sunny colchester and that really touched the heart strings! you could forgive them for the 'pestering' of the boys for an interview, and after the first guy wasn't playing they eventually found two lads who fancied the limelight..
the first one was like the next, a new recruit before they deployed and handled the questions well, even telling the hack that they simply sat reading 'nuts' / 'zoo' and 'the sun' when under RPG attacks... lol..me thinks he will have his face in said mags when they get to hear of his dedication to their excellent articles!!!!
then went on to say how he thought the taliban were all cowards and that they were supplied ok etc etc etc...
the second lad was fresh into the para's and told pretty much the same story and apart from one single use of the F-word, and was under the opinion that it was the first op they had been on in 20 odd years since korea?? not sure the lads from his unit ( 3 para) that stormed mount longdon would agree!! but hey forgive the guy you must as he like his mate seemed equally at ease with what went on
boys to heroes, like all their comrades......
THEN.............
on the other side of this glorious nation they then went on to show our other TRUE brits rioting at the england game.... heroes my ar$e... kn*bs maybe.. they should round every last fookin one of them and get them back on the tri star where the para's have just come from.....
BUT THE BEST BIT WAS...................
during the description of what was going on in korea they tried to explain the deployment of the north's 10,000 arty pieces within range of seoul, but it was ok 'cause they were mates with the yanks and they had......cue vid clip of two tonka's screaming through some desert???????
