@AlistairCarns outlines here, and very clearly, why the truly awful and unjust NI Troubles Bill and the conveyor belt of veteran persecution initiated by @UKLabour must not survive
Just in case anyone is still wondering why @UKLabour and the terminally irresponsible Kier Starmer chooses to not fund UK Defence and to gleefully persecute Veterans on behalf of our enemies…….
@JChimirie66677 has succinctly and powerfully outlined what Starmer, Hermer and their shady acolytes has done to destroy the longstanding legal basis for UK military operations.
And how the retrospective application of wholly inappropriate Human Rights law to legitimate combat actions has created this treacherous conveyor belt of Veteran persecution, to the delight of our enemies and dismay of our allies.
And to make matters even worse, this is no accident based on misunderstanding. Oh no, this is deliberate and calculated. They - the elected @UKLabour leaders of this country know what they are doing, and are proud of it.
A decisive cut in the Defence Investment Budget by the Starmer government has been expected for some time. The only thing that needs to be revealed is the scale of that cut, the creative accounting tricks (watch out for the defence housing investment being included) and the (many) conditions that will apply to the capital allocated to procurement.
What is also expected is nothing but fawning compliance from CDS and the career-obsessed Defence “Chiefs”, who will say that the technological revolution in military affairs means that they can do more, achieve more lethality, with less money and less people….
Oh….and expect no change to the Human Rights riddled legal basis for UK military operations and the conveyor belt of veteran abuse by a truly careless government…
@piersmorgan I'm actually really pleased that Arsenal did it, as I think Arteta is a bloody good manager. However, you've done it, now move on and go again, that's how you prove yourself.
@SelfDaniel@England@FA Something tells me we'll be home by the 2nd round. I know Southgate was at times indecisive and not positive enough, but he always got a reaction from the players. All I can say, is thankfully the games will be on whilst I'm asleep.
Strap in: Follow one of our paratroopers from @16AirAssltBCT jumping in to Tristan da Cunha – one of the world’s most remote communities – to deliver vital medical support 🪂
Pathfinders and airborne medics have jumped into Tristan da Cunha, the remotest inhabited island in the world, to treat a Briton with Hantavirus.
The British territory has no airstrip. The closest Royal Navy ship was days away and oxygen supplies were critically low.
BREAKING NEWS
“Furious” Starmer was not told local elections had taken place yesterday.
The PM claims civil servants kept him in the dark until this morning.
He has ordered an enquiry into why the elections had gone ahead without his knowledge.
“I thought we’d cancelled them” he told Sky News.
@JChimirie66677 is very right: a @UKLabour government that cannot proscribe the IRGC because it fears the electoral consequences in specific constituencies is nothing but a slave to the terrorist regime.
They, and their mandarins, will try to explain this as part of keeping diplomatic relations open with Tehran, a powerful way to exercise what they call the UK’s “soft power”, of playing a meaningful role in a GFA-like “conflict resolution” game…
But it’s not that. It’s a lie, and nothing more than making a virtue out of a necessity….If you no longer have the military means to exercise “hard power”, or to defend yourself by force, you have to do pathetic, surrender-like deals with the devils and call it “smart”.
No wonder the peaceful community of Golders Green are vulnerable…
The @UKLabour Defence Secretary affirms in his ‘snappy’ little corporate PR video what Orwell meant when he said “Political Language is designed to… give an appearance of solidity to pure wind”
Has he forgotten that the Country is still waiting for the Treasury to agree to fund the SDR, that the Royal Navy can only deploy one ship to the Med, that the Vice Chief of Defence Staff admitted that he can only deploy 1000 troops at best to a short-notice emergency in Europe, and that his government remains determined to push through a nonsense NI Bill that will use Human Rights law to mercilessly persecute honourable veterans into old age for political not evidential reasons.
He and other political appointees in the Defence PR/‘windbag’ department are lying….
They aren’t actually helping the defence of the Country, they are wilfully acting to weaken it and clearly believe we are all too gullible to realize it…
@piersmorgan One of the best games I've seen. Incredible game. Do you actually not like football Mr Morgan ? Or is it fear talking in the knowledge that if you somehow manage to get to the final against one of those teams, you'll get a bit of a spanking ?
Huge result for the Women’s First Team to end the season 🫶 A 9-4 win over Gt Yarmouth Town, which lifts them off the foot of the table too. Braces each for Kayleigh Holloway, Siân Steward and Nat Roope, goals each for Darcy Peters, Maddy Welton and Connie Gooch. The season isn’t quite over yet, as the Dev’s head to Red Rose on 10th May.
A massive thank you and well done to the squad, as well as the management group Kyran, Simon, Daryl, Danny and David 💚

I've built a tool for FA Full-Time that allows clubs to pull in their fixtures across leagues to help plan, prevent clashes, and communicate with teams.
I've used it for 2 years and now built a generator.
