@BelannF We know politicians use coke, it’s a billion £$€ industry so the public are using it, the black market inflates its value and it’s the bank roll for organised crime and corruption. Why is it illegal? The prohibition experiment has utterly failed to make society safer.
@PulpLibrarian My father was a Hawk man extra. Said BB was just the same when they weren’t shooting, playing around with the extras and being an all around legend.
The irrepressible Bdr Rob Long, he grapples by touch due to an IED blast in Afghanistan, but he still competes, and beats, able bodied opponents - an absolute legend and a shining example of what can be achieved when you refuse to be beaten 🥋🥋🇬🇧🇬🇧
@AdamCatterall Dehydrating to weigh in at a weight you don’t walk around at, train at or are going to fight at is shameful.Seeing how much water you can temporarily loose then gain to falsify your actual fight weight is such an unsporting part of the game and shouldn’t be part of combat sport
@THR Really you needed a true fan of the game with writing experience and someone not afraid of the ultra realistic gore the game had its roots in. A Simon Pegg and Quentin Tarantino calab could have really given RE the production it deserved. Could’ve even saved net-flicks
@graphincent @ktris@Twitter Your probably joking, but just in case, we like to be as informed as the rest of society and base our responses on as much information as we can get, or feel we’re in on the joke or meme if thats the case. Information allways gives someone a better ability to contribute ideas 😎
@WelshGuards Allways remember forming up next to the NBC chamber before we’d run to Concrete hill, the PTI’sa grinning and saying a nice waft of CS gas will excite the lungs😵 love a bit of PTI science😂
@BritishArmy_BJJ @rhqra @BBCNews@RogerGracie_HQ A life defining moment for me that first grip you allowed me to have when we met and trained at the combat centre. One day that same grip is looking to be wrapped around an able bodied World Championship gold🥇💪 thank you for everything
@ArmyDComd51Bde @BBCNews@BritishArmy_BJJ 😂 yes, and those lads who do feel like chiming in on how many Xmas puddings I’ve put down range, earn themselves an automatic invite to the Armed Forces, Veterens and emergency responders championship in Feb, where they can participate in a live dem of the power of Para BJJ🤼♂️
@PaulMorganPhD The #BJJ comunity is like nothing else on earth. It’s not just my escape, It’s better than any #Therapy session and I didn’t even find it for that but it’s benefits found me and helped shape me into the man I am today🥋🧘♂️💪
BJJ has truly changed my life with its comunity and lifestyle. Thank you Jamie for letting me tell my story and my goals to bring it to those who’ll benefit💪Soldier blinded by explosion becomes jiu-jitsu champion - BBC News https://t.co/mGWCMygdfa
Controlling my opponent is essential as a #blind fighter. Adding to my catalog of grips with my shoulders on a wrist, as I apply neck pressure on my opponent with my head or other arm. Thank you Lyubo Kumbarov and @BritishArmy_BJJ can’t wait to start competing again
What a day training with British Army BJJ. The morning spent learning under Olympic level coach Lyubo Kumbarov then the afternoon learning under the G.O.A.T Roger Gracie. And what an honour to see the man who brought me into BJJ Shamus Kelly receive his blackbelt @BritishArmy_BJJ

Briefing the volunteer crew of Veterens from #4/73 on making the land navigable for people with #disability thank you brothers, it’s massively going to help my independence and allow me to support other #veterans#Lateo
January was the absolute lowest point of my life. Isolation, family breakdown but having a goal and implementing it with the help of guys from my unit and @BritishArmy_BJJ got me through. Day one of the project started today💪
