Noticed a pattern, the quickest people to dismiss an argument with “that’s ChatGPT” are almost always hiding behind dog avatars, cartoon gods, or anonymous symbols.
Strange how confidence and anonymity rarely travel together.
Core Rule: What you’re allowed to attack
From Additional Protocol I to the Geneva Conventions – Article 52(2):
“Attacks shall be limited strictly to military objectives.”
“Military objectives are limited to those objects which by their nature, location, purpose or use make an effective contribution to military action and whose destruction… offers a definite military advantage.”

It’s takes 3 months to basic train a soldier. That’s just basic training it takes years to build ships etc etc, all I’m saying is British military decline (in terms of size and strength) is a problem that has been on going for decades. Do I think this PM is strong and reliable? No! Is this his fault? No!
@afneil I can’t read it Andrew as it’s behind a pay Wall. I reacted to you very strong headline which singled out only Starmer- and for the record I’m no fan of this prime minister.
Your point is fair—this stuff takes decades, not months.
But the “old man shouting” line is unfair Andrew Neil is right to raise the issue.
The problem is framing it like a 21-month failure. The state of the British military is the result of long-term decisions across successive governments.
@BBCBreaking This psychopath needs stopping. Him and the lunatic that kiss his arse daily, as well as the evil that run Israel. This is a clear threat to use weapons of mess destruction
That's a different point entirely.
The current economic shock isn't being caused by events in 2023 - it's being caused by escalation now.
You don't get disruption to global shipping and oil markets from something two years ago.
If 2023 was the cause, the economic shock would've happened in 2023.
@PeterStefanovi2 That’s not what it looks like on the ground. Services are being cut, staff are stretched, and patients are waiting longer than ever. You can’t measure the NHS from a podium — you measure it on wards.
@henrywinter Henry Winter presumably means his own opinion when he writes ‘some England fans’.
Henry, you’re entitled to your opinion but don’t dress it up as fan sentiment, when all England fans will care about is how the team does at the World Cup.
So this is where we are.
Financial cheating gets you trophies… and a £10m slap on the wrist.
No points deduction. No titles touched. No real consequences.
That’s not “fair competition” — it’s a message:
Cheat well enough, and you’ll be allowed to keep it.
And when City point to this on appeal, no one should act surprised.
@nws13 This is just getting more embarrassing by the day from the White House. You would never see childish crao like this from a decent humane Government - shame on anybody who supports this nonsense.
