I was only promoted twice in the Army but it’s still one of the best feelings I’ve ever experienced, imagine being promoted by the king .. next level 🫡
@AlistairCarns had a distinguished military career. It is damning that Benn, Starmer, Hermer, Reeves and others would not listen to him on lawfare, the Northern Ireland Bill, on defence transformation or on financial resources; and all credit to this RM veteran for stepping into the breach and his resignation on principle.
His dynamite resignation, on the back of the Healey exit represents the necessary detonation of a political bomb under UK defence; highlighting how screwed up it all really is, how badly Starmer is lying to the country, and how totally irresponsible is this @UKLabour government.
Carns is very right on the big things, the MoD and the “centre” are not facing reality on the changing technologies of war, they are not getting the resources they need and they are not defending veterans from lawfare. On this latter and vital point, this is led and encouraged by the UK’s own Attorney General as chief back-stabber.
For this, Hermer should be the next to go. And by the way, don’t expect much from the Starmer-loyalist, ex-Para Jarvis….not every Politician has the guts to do what Carns and Healey have just done…
@HLTCO As a villa fan I feel your pain, we have exactly the same situation happening with Rogers, signed a new contract, CL football next season yet the media are desperate for him to be sold .. clubs like ours should never rock the boat 🙄
@aaron_l16@villareport@mjmarr_star Nah I would take them both in a heartbeat, class players with prem experience .. upgrade to our current wingers .. would get 2/3 good seasons off them before they start to slow.
