If i was a uk soldier I'd flat out refuse to go. Rather spend time on prison then be turned into steaming pile of lasagna for some rich people
Me too!
Me to legitimately but they'd drag us off the street or out our home to go and fight their insidious bloodthirsty wars for them. This isn't to protect our loved one's or our friends...It's for the interest of heartless globalist shills
Which is exactly why you and those with that mindset will never be a UK soldier in the first place. Our soldiers are all professionals and they know where their duty may take them.
@@Scaleyback317 So tell me where are they when the UK is being invaded by Islam in rubber boats?
@@Scaleyback317 if you want to fight a foolish war, be my guest but those of us who know a just cause when we see one know this Ukraine war is BS!
On one hand we're told the Russian army is hopelessly inept and losing, then we're told they are about to sweep west and take all of Europe. So which is it?
Neither of those 😂
The BS is strong on either side of the BS they are pushing on us today
It's whatever side enables more production and sales
Whichever they can make the most money out of.
just like the Iraq war lies
Ex militay here it would be a very very bad idea to get involved attacking Russia.
Totally agree

Can take out Iranian missiles but not Russian. Putin frequently threatens Eastern Europe. So what's the difference?
@@danielbb8570 Go read serious history.
I agree. All governments have failed the armed forces. I also served. However we were not ready as a country in world war two when we declared war on Germany and played for time. We were very lucky then. We must do what we can with what we have if we are pushed and only pushed. The youth of today cannot even get in, they are waiting months, it's a complete joke. When I joined I went in January 1984 for selection and on Monday 27th February 1984,I was in.

This man is crazy, uk not ready for war don’t have enough ammunition and military supplies
I am sure it would not take long to get it....The budget has been increased. A lot of equipment replaced. Hopefully the regiments can get their own recruitment back as well as this is a downfall of being contracted out.
@@emstirling-is4nu there is one factory in the UK that produces small arms ammunition and there was recently a fire there. CAPITA have been dreadful for the Army but it's not their fault there's a recruitment crisis. The Navy have a recruitment crisis and still do their own recruiting. Moreover, the Army has a retention problem which is nothing to do with CAPITA. It takes 6 months to train an infantry soldier, and that's not including the time taken in the application process etc. The UK is in no way ready for war and would take a long time to be in a fit state to do so.
Tks for explaining. I think Capita has to be dissolved...it is mainly on-line process and as far as I gather it takes up to a year after being accepted before the person is given a start date, so most cannot do without a wage so get a job and stay in it. There was also a lot of applicants who did get the medicals and were refused...one was for a condition which after he pursued by 3 specialists, that diagnosis was incorrect....another was refused because of a skin condition pre-puberty which was no longer there. The Navy & Air Forces have gotten better numbers lately so just the Army to get fixed. Was glad to see some of the new equipment - impressive - up-to-date . I just hope that things improve in the near future to make us ready for whatever comes our own way. tks to all who serve...very much appreciated.@@AK-us2di

@passurlamer None of those countries you listed have thousands of thermonuclear warheads and the means to deliver them anywhere on the planet in less than half an hour.

The only way to win the game is to not play it.
@@mockingbbirdkilla1771 because its actually more likely a proxy conventional war would take place in Ukraine. lets say the UK joins ukraine, when russia is deafeated they would have to sign a contract to leave ukraine. the UK-UK coalition wouldn't invade russia . a lot of you cant seem to grasp that a war between nations can happen without an invasion of the homeland. like many british colonial wars with spain or france.

It will make you even sicker; when you realise that the Brit regime has been the major instigator all along... They even took control of America by fixing the 2020 Presidential elections so they could have their proxy war with Russia.. Boris Johnson was sent to scupper a peace deal on May 6th 2022... and here we are.... Of course there's no going back now for the brit regime (they are all dead men walking).

You win the air war you win the ground war
Tell putin
That's been the thinking for decades. This war is showing how warfare is evolving and there will be a few surprises yet to be had for sure.
Putin's going to win the ground war, regardless of whether he has total control of the skies.
Not necessarily. You want to control the skies, sure, but we've found out time and time again that you can't bomb your way to victory (at least not with conventional weapons) Vietnam being a great example. US was essentially unchallenged in the air to do whatever it wanted, especially in the south. Rolling Thunder rocked the north for years... But if you don't have the political will to do what needs to be done (ie boots on the ground to capture Hanoi) to win it doesn't matter how many millions of bombs you drop. Can't occupy a street corner with an F-16 or B1...
Like Vietnam ?
Starmer, Sunak and the rest of them go fight. You are our enemies not the Russians.
Britain should not be interfering in the Ukraine/Russia situation, it's none of our buisness & this country needs that money ! We've got vetrans sleeping on the streets & families living on food banks for goodness sake !

We can't afford it. all our bills are going up. Enough of war. what a waste.

Yes we can and we only spend about 2 percent GDP at the moment. Russia is spending 50 percent GDP. The E.U has 10 x the GDP of Russia. Russia in bleeding money at the moment and will be bankrupt soon.
@merlin7766 couldn't care less what you call me. Millions of people are struggling in this cost of living crisis, highest taxes in 70 years, highest percentages of children in poverty. Yet we should be wasting precious money on more death. No thanks. Sing that to the birds. We cannot afford it.
@merlin7766 you and yours gather yourselves and fund it then. Not we the general public. WHO CANNOT AFFORD IT.
Tell that to Putin
Dad's Army will sought things out by jove,what!!
Hamish reminds me of the officers from "It ain't half hot mum".
They don't like it down 'em , no they don't .
_sought_ Except, we can spell.
Don’t laugh you would be surprised how many of the volunteers on the front lines are around 60 and I can guarantee you the orcs aren’t laughing at it
What does that even mean? Is it referring to his speech? Would you rather he spoke pigeon English with brains to match or like so many now who can't even form a sentence. Is it an ignorant modern, ill-informed, under-educated swipe at an older generation who had gumption. guts and brains (average working class lad of the 1940's far more intelligent than today's counterpart) especially the old chaps of Dad's Army ilk. You sound as if you'd fall very short, perhaps it's why you can only make silly comments about someone's speech?????

Hamish is right, we need too sort out which side of the fence for the future. Are politicians are totally spineless? Ukrainian needs help urgently.
get yourself to the front lines then, Ukraine are always looking for some foreign cannon fodder who have no clue of whats going on beyond what the main stream media tell them. You sound like the perfect naive soul to go and fight.
I agree, and the absence of a clear strategy towards the aggressor makes matters worse!
@@retorenfer8702 What winning strategy are you stating. WW3 has no winner it never did. At best we aren't going to be able to defend a front stretching from the Black Sea to the Barents Sea let alone supply it. Just like Israel is running out of options v the forces against it and ideally needs to be evacuated not defended.
@@confederatenationalist7283 so we surrender to vladolf putler and his neo-Bolsheviks and Marxists?
Thanks to your "help" Ukraine is in this position. If it wasn't for Boris Johnson's madling this conflict with resolved on negotiation table long time ago.
I’m sure Putin is shaking in his boots at the DIVERSE British soldiers. Armed to the teeth with Rainbows.
As opposed to being killed or violated by their own side like your lot.
nice Russian channels you are subscribed to Ivan.
Hamish is speaking very wise words! Ukrainian needs help from the West urgently.
Why haven’t you gone over there ukraine offers good money to mercenaries but life expectancy at the front line is about 4 hours good luck
@@ajsingh9668 ridiculous view point? The western governments haven’t moved up to the mark on military aid “We talk the talk” but never come up with the real goods.
Hamish will say anything for a dollar.
Ukraine doesn’t except mercernaries but they do have foreign volunteers and there is a huge difference Also if you ask 90% of the volunteers they will tell you they put any pay back into buying weapons for defending Ukraine
You sure? 👀
no thanks. needed here. got to fight for whats left.
heres an idea.. how about we use our defence forces to defend UK/NATO? just a thought
Vladimir Putin has never shown any inclination to want to move further West than Ukraine!. Ukraine is a country that used to be part of Russia!. Britain travelled 12,000 miles to take back a tiny piece of land called the Falklands!.
We did. We own it. We won. As usual. Cry more.

Really like this bloke. Says what he knows and doesn’t speculate on that which he doesn’t.
So this bloke thinks he can fight Russia. Do you believe you are capable of it ? The Russians will wipe you out with their hypersonic missiles in a blink of an eye.
Sounds like you have been punched in the head to many times…

Really 😂 It's complete drivel
He’s reading a script for his paedo-mason masters.
what indication did Pootin make that he will go beyond Ukraine? Before invading Ukraine Pootin did not have any problems with neighbor states that are in NATO. He is not suicidal, stop fear mongering.Everyone knows that once Pootin wins in Ukraine he will place his own men in charge and West will lose a grip on Ukraine reasources, simple as that.
The nurse will be around with your MEDS shortly Ivan.

What would he want with Europe. It’s declining.
word, he is makin money on these idiots, and the European politicians making money as well, while dangling boogyman Pootin in front of General population. same as "Global Warming", they make millions and steal billions. Keep drinking that Coolaid and listen to these wise man.
He wanted trade and treaties with Europe, not invade it. US geopolitics wouldn't allow that though.

Spot on, time and time again. Brilliant interview. Extraordinarily insightful. Thank you. We must switch to a defensive war time economy, and ramp up the deterrence of Russia, which at the moment is the federation effectively deterring NATO.

Before considering troops, Britain and other European countries should take a hard look at what it can do to give Ukraine air speriority. Even if it involves British planes and pilots.
Russians have special affection for Britain and it' s historically friendly foreign policy toward the Russians even before 1854 and Crimean war. I always tell everyone that only britain that used to be great once upon a time long time ago has the right to have colonies on five ( 5 ) continents, including Crimea.
We sided with Ottoman Turks to help them take a slice of Christian Russia .
Yes russia has a special relationship with Britain they used it to test chemical weapons
Never heard of the 'great game'. Russia has always been a rival
We're much happier as a democracy than an empire. The people live better, happier, longer lives. Hopefully, one day you will understand.
