I'm sick to the back teeth risking my life for that poo poo hole. Bobby needs to go to the front line and see warfare for himself! Perhaps take a ride in snatch rover? Tool around on a Chinny during an IRT? Fly about Helmund in a Sea King? The man is a joke, just like the "men" before him. But who is better? It seems to me being the Minister for Armed Forces is a poison chalice that is a backward step in the Labour Party?

When the rich wage war - it's normally the poor that die!

It just really pi@@es me off when comments like that are thrown around - is he going on Military advice? Or what he generally believes? If the top brass are telling him its winnable than they need removing from post!
