PARCEL #102 LONDON TUBING EDITION

[Speaker to Animals]

They might also not want to admit they made a huge mistake with this refugee policy.

You know, the way Monty is reacting, I'm starting to think you're right, but also they're just cheap, trust me, I served with the Brits, their inclination to cut corners and fuck the troops, is breath taking.

I observed the same thing. RAF don't get a pass either.

It's all of a piece, like I said, Grenfell Towers, that's the British public sector for you, just unbeleivably incompetent, and cheap, I bitch about the Candian public sector, but you know, the British make them look like superstars.

And if 58 people are killed in a terrorist attack tommorow? Public inquiry. And what will it say? Not enough security, then some underlings will be blamed, probably somebody in the Army.

Your Airforce treats airman like kings up there. Tbey seem stricter than us, though.

We lavish money on the troops and the operations, but go cheap on big ticket items, but the British MOD; two aircraft carriers, right? They are way beyond their means, so where do they make up the difference? They cut corners on eveything, this is why their kit is such crap, SA80 is like the metaphor for the whole MOD.

I'm quite sure HQ Home Command does not think 2500 troops is adequate for London with terrorism alert at the highest levels, but it's just MOD, they dont want to spend the money, got aircraft carriers to pay for, wot? If your women and children are killed by a terrorist in London; "stiff upper lip". Burned to death in Grenfell Towers; same-same; "stiff upper lip"

[Smitty-48]

Just looking at some of the comments in the British papers about the troops in London...

"Their orders are to arrest any white male who says anything that can be construed as "islamophobic"'

lol. Funny cuz itz tru.

Comment sections are where it's at

[Smitty-48]

The incompetence is really stunning, so for example, they don't have the troops deployed against the actual threat, they have them deployed to "critical infrastructure" sites, as if sabotage was ISIS's MO, the actual targets, the people, they have nothing for that, but they are guarding the shit out of that power station over there, because we know how ISIS loves to blow up power stations.

Meanwhile, also, instead of just carrying on "stiff upper lip", they're actually canceling everything, anything touristy is basically closed, so they are literally hiding from the threat rather than just providing adequate security.

I mean, I'd fire Theresa May without a second thought, if it weren't for the even bigger dingbat who would replace her.

[TheReal_ND]

Some would argue to choose the completely incompetent commie though.

[Smitty-48]

I'd honestly vote for Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi over Jeremy Corbyn.

Are you more of a Green Party guy?
