While British Troops are having to supply their own equipment, (Boots and Helmets) This British hating Labour government have been stealing money off the tax payer. It's a disgrace. And the man who sent them off to war (Blair) Is currently raking it in as a after dinner speaker. Shameful.

a top police officer said this week the muslims have as much right to march through wooton bassett as our people have to honour our soldiers,another top police officer did a sharon shoesmith when confronted on tv about a family of yobs terroriseing 2 decent familys for over 3 years they have 9 asbos between them all he said was well at least no ones been robbed no ones dead. they used to be known as pc plod,that needs changing to PCEO,politicly correct enforcement officers.bring back pc plod.

Great song Johnny. On a day when we find 45 million pound bonuses have been paid to MOD staff when our troops are dying for a lack of equipment, what the hell are British people about? The French would take to the streets and the troops would be home. We have the government we deserve.

@mikeperry109 Yeh i agree, I wish we was France in world war two aswell! Viva the surrender!!! Fuck the fighters, we are French!

[Kokoots]

I detest Blair and Brown. Both lying slimy scum bags.

Hi kokoots

our troops are fighting and dieing because blair wanted to make a name for him self on the world stage and didnt he just.then when things got to hot he did a runner leaving our troops,our country,our people,know he is making millions whilst our soldiers are still dieing every day because of that bastard.i wonder if hes brought up all the flower shops in wooten basset and the local funeral parlours come to think of it.

oil isnt going to protect itself. plus, you need soldiers to invade Iran for their oil. and then Syria. and once all the wells are dry, Canada. I just hope that Europe will not join the fight for the last drops of oil and move on to other energy sources
