I think the problem with it is that the army aren't meant to be political. I would say this video is very political in the current climate.

At that time Muslims would have been around at least five percent of the population and probably more....(2011 census showed 4.4)...I suspect in reality more like six or seven percent. Far more of them went aboard and fought for ISIS than signed up for us......and while I respect those that signed up......for the MoD to make that film is a pure embarrassment.

Democracy without strict immigration means you lose your country. Japan knew that.....They have a higher GDP than us yet kept their nation. In a hundred years time Japan will still be Japanese. In a hundred years time England will only be part English. In longer time scales I doubt the name England will even be seen as an accurate description. Edited by Stirlingsays (14 Oct 2018 8.14pm) England, of course, being a modernised version of 'Englaland' or Land of the Angles. The Angles were a Germanic tribe who came and settled on the East coast in the middle ages...

Yes, the 'genetic' English are a northern European combination....mainly Germanic and Scandinavian with a little Norman and Celt. Very slow immigrations...and those were fought wars over....and no major migrations for centuries....until the neo liberals decided nations were so last century. Like I say.....in a hundred years, Japan will still be Japanese.....China will still be Chinese. Edited by Stirlingsays (14 Oct 2018 9.56pm)

I just see a man who has signed up to fight for our country practising his faith as lots of people do and I don't see the politics link,but I could be wrong as I regularly am.i just find it a bit odd that people can't see anything wrong or silly in singing a Tommy Robinson Jeremy corbyn or any other political figures song whilst in uniform.but as I said I could be wrong Originally posted by dannyboy1978

Edited by Stirlingsays (14 Oct 2018 9.25pm) forget about flags and allegiance. why not conscript people who are 'long term unemployed' into the army. which groups in society have the highest rates of longterm unemployment ?
