To be fair to me..

Out of trim you tell me, I'm not in charge. I just observe.
It looks as thought the RAF's role over Syria has ended anyway. Or is rapidly drawing down from what was pretty low intensity anyway. My source? MODs own websites and the RAFs own on-going operations page. Today.
RAF - Current Operations


https://www.gov.uk/government/news/u...-against-daesh


Nearly all the operations seem to be going on against Daesh (formally ISIL) in northern Iraq. UK currently have an availability of aircraft but they don't appear to be used that much.
Not even listed on the current ops. What does that tell you?


It was another Cameron spin then, all the hullabaloo on the vote etc?
My guess? UK has now withdrawn from the Syrian civil war due to a lack of ISIL/DAESH targets? But the real war goes on elsewhere.
