We won't put boots on the ground in Ukraine. We can supply the Ukranians with weapons and tech, advisors etc but very much doubt we will send any personnel over there - same with other nations, I'd expect.

Which is different to saying "we haven't got the stomach for it".

Do you think we should put boots on the ground in Ukraine?
 
That’s way off my pay scale Col.....I’m referring more what we WILL do.....which I reiterate, it will be **** all

I'm not asking you to make the ****ing decision mate.

Saying we'll do "**** all" came across as a criticism and a suggestion that there's something we could do.

Surely you have an opinion?

Should we commit forces, openly on the ground in Ukraine in your opinion?
 
According to your previous posts, it hasn’t?
Those sanctions aren’t enough imo.

Yeah I wasn’t genuinely suggesting the fat nonce does a nationwide “Get Ukraine Done” tour. That was a joke.

Given it’s a Friday he’s probably three gin and tonics in by now and will take the credit for any resolution once he’s sobered up on Tuesday.

We just don't have the capability for a full on, troops in the field, conventional war. For years our forces have had their numbers, equipment and funding chipped away.

Being a member of NATO means that any incursion on any of it's members forces us to deploy, along with the other 29 nations. Insane as he is, surely Putin won't go after the Baltics or any other countries in that area.

Committing troops to Ukraine? Just can't see it happening.

Ok if you want my opinión…of course we shouldn’t commit forces. You’d be a ****ing idiot to think that’s a good idea. But of course there are a lot of ****ing idiots in this country who will be happy for that to happen

There’s probably one or two on here

Mmm yesterday when they captured Chernobyl I thought about the workings of that then news is coming in about increased radiation readings there.
