so what? all the stuff people spend their spare money on - holidays they don't need, extra fashion clothes they don't need, gadgets they don't need.

Do without all the luxuries to fund the best bombs ever

Of course a few weeks ago, and I'll have to check of course who was whinging, that the UK wasn't spending ENOUGH on defence. Cannot have it both ways.

Don’t bother checking blagger but seeing as you are here. 

Any chance you can answer the question I put to you on another thread ??. 
My views on the armed forces don’t need you to be wasting your public sector financed time. Let’s stop spending on shite and focus on our own needs first and foremost.

Anyway I digress now answer that question.

There’s plenty of money to be saved that could go the the armed forces before taxing people even more is required. Whatever happened to the so called peace dividend 🤷‍♂️ The biggest problem being is that Starmer has yet to give a date or any details, nothing but BS waffle as is often the case with him.

What's this burning question that you've got your Y-Fronts all in a twist about now? Is it still that military service conjecture thing? It's hard for one to keep track. 

 

Anyway, the answer to everything is 42. Everyone knows that.

It’s hard for one to keep track 😂😂😂😂😂

Nah old SP didn’t have the balls to answer that one. That’s fair enough there are plenty of “ Walt’s” out there one more ain’t gonna make much difference, the other one ie what he does for a living 🤷‍♂️well to be that embarrassed or ashamed  you won’t say 😞 I guess it’s a step mentally he can’t cross yet. 
No one is in a twist this time 42 it’s just quite amusing to watch the blagger behave like a question hasn’t even been asked. That level of absolute thick skinned shamelessness is very rare, bordering on a mental illness I’d say. I wouldn’t care it’s just a very very simple easy thing to answer too.
