LOOK, I’m no Labour supporter. Starmer? More like f**king Stalin as far as I’m concerned. So I hate to say it but I’m with the twat on not leaping into this war. 

I know, I know, it’s giving a terrorist regime the scrap they’ve been asking for, it’s Trump showing the libs you can act and not just bang on, Israel’s well up for the ruck, it should be totally my thing. 

The Tories are into it, cause Kemi needs an outlet for her aggression. Farage loves it because it’s war as it should be fought, against foreigners with minimal UK casualties. 

But weirdly, I’m not feeling this one. I think it’s Iraq. You know, what with it being so similar in name to Iran, and right next door, and the fact that we spent 20 f**king years there at a cost of millions and achieved precisely f**k all. 

In fact, are we still there? I know we pulled out of Afghanistan not long ago after a couple of decades of war and it went right back to how it was within, like, days. Which suggests it was a total waste of our time, bullets and Prince Harry. 

And admittedly I watch a lot of YouTube videos about historic tank battles to relax, but planning is a big thing in war. Generals really sit down with maps and go through variables. Whereas Trump seems to have pulled this whole thing out of his arse. 

I get it. Starmer’s a coward. A drone exploded in Cyprus so load up the battleships and get balls-deep into war. The lads on Raise the Colours are unequivocal. 

Let’s just, you know, sit this one out for a bit. See how it goes. Wouldn’t do us any harm to skip one like we did Vietnam. I’m with Keir on this. But bollocks am I voting for him.
