THE CONSERVATIVES VOTED FOR WAR
14.07.09, 11:13am
What was the commission on that sale which is costing the lives of brave soldiers put in death traps?
Shame the Tories allowed the illegal, useless Iraq war and did not make a peep about Dr Kelly's obviously suspicious and timely death and allow more useless, costly, death and destruction in Afghanistan?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I agree with you Penny.
The Conservative Party didn't just allow the illegal wars and Regime changes and sexed up MI6 dodgy dossiers...THEY VOTED FOR IT !!
So who benefits from these Wars ? Certainly John Major who as a director of the Carlisle Group, supplied many Army purchase orders for goods and arms and non functional Belgium ammunition for the Blair Wars around the world.Did anyone notice Blairs payout trip as he left office ,around the world with his cap out ? He came home with £10 million and a book deal from the world's moneylenders whose War he had implimented.
One wonders ,had Dr Kellynot been murdered , what the shares would be doing at Qinetiq ?
I think that the British people are fed up with being taken for pawns in someone else's game.

THE BBC, THE TOP GREEDY BANKERS, THE GREEDY MP'S SHOULD PAY
14.07.09, 10:05am
If the Greedy top Bankers, the BBC top cats and the corrupt MP's who allowed these useless, costly wars which can NEVER be won, should pay for the equipment until all our boys are brought back home, or pay for our terrible hospitals, or contribute to pensions for the vulnerable elderly.
There is no point waiting until we 'win' this war as there was no point waiting until we 'won' the Iraq war as these useless wars can NEVER be won, however much money and lives are lost there.
Britian needs it's brave men back home and Britian does not need to waste money on useless wars which just serve to boost the arms trade.
Who ordered the dangerous tanks which the Americans refused as they were far too dangerous?

The Conservatives should have been shouting from the rooftops ever since 1997 and they said nothing but practiced, 'cover-ups as best you can'.
Why shout now when you did not do so for over a decade?
The Bliar/Brown demolition team should have been stopped a decade ago, whilst the Tories were twiddling their thumbs and brushing horrors under the carpet, whilst wondering where they were going to dine next and with whom, instead of protecting Britain from greed, abuse and corruption at the top.
Too little, too late, Cameron.

TORIES JOIN ATTACK OF AFGHAN CAMPAIGN

Tory rhetoric about defence really f-in p*sses me off. They don't actually say they would increase the defence budget. They are just as unfit to govern.

I THINK THE WAR IN THE COMMONS NEEDS ADDRESSED

That is exactly it....vote pulling tactics!
Instead of all the parties being adult and working TOGETHER on this issue in a professional way, all they can do is throw campaigns for their own agenda.

WHAT PLANET DOES AINSWORTH...
13.07.09, 10:25pm
...live on. Let's stop talking percentages!! exactly how many operational helicopters are there? where are they? how many does each Battalion/Squadron have? how many are U/S and waiting for spare parts?how long does it take for spare parts to get there? Why have our Military been ordered to adopt the 'softly, softly' approach, you won't win the hearts and minds of the locals by letting the Taliban live, they are terrorists who rule by fear. Either let our Military do their job unhindered by politics with the full backing of the UN and the Military of the United States of Europe or bring our troops home and let them tighten and protect our borders including all Docks and Airports from home/overseas terrorists.

DISGRACEFULL
13.07.09, 3:36pm
Whilst MPs are quite prepared to send our young men to war lacking both numbers and helicopters and other equipment by underfunding defense. They themselves are more than happy to pillage the public purse for their own ends. Monies paid for Browns cleaners or millibands garden could be used to supportthe troops. It is sickening that these greedy people even want the public purse to pay for their food never mind their accomadation. Bring on the election and let us have some revenge on these shameless individuals

HELICOPTERS
13.07.09, 2:58pm
Perhaps some of our EU 'friends' could provide a few helicopter especially as they haven't put that many troops on the ground. If not, perhaps we could use the £40M daily fee for being in the EU to buy helicopters instead.
