If they're playing Gammon Bingo, then maybe capital punishment will be the next announcement?

In a rind about sort of way you've lowered the tone. Didn't expect that our of you. Your posts are normally measured.

I don't really get your point. I was thinking of policy suggestions that are popular with many core Tory voters, and amongst the top ones are usually national service and the death penalty. (Unless you mean my use of the word gammon.)

I see what you did there.

You know exactly what what my beef was.

I was a little bit disappointed with Jonathan, he's normally quite rashernal in his replies.

I wasn't expecting you to be so disgruntled over a gentle ribbing.

More so you got on my goat a bit.

think it is a brilliant idea myself, a year in the army would transform the lives of our feckless youth. Exercise, healthy diet, proper socialising. And on top of that it will help to strengthen our armed forces in an ever increasingly unstable wold.

Unless they choose this option,

"Community volunteering: Spending one weekend every month - which equates to 25 days over a 12-month period - volunteering with organisations such as the NHS, fire service, ambulance, search and rescue, and critical local infrastructure".

The government has confirmed no one will be forced to do military training under the £2.5bn scheme.

If my posts annoy you so much, then you can always treat any future ones as spam.

Ok, couple of facts to spoil the chat...

The military option is for well qualified candidates only, NOT anyone who wants to join.

"The military option will be voluntary, selective, and commissioned - and not square bashing or combat armed roles.
Sounds more like secondments to Abbey Wood, MOD and Cheltenham rather than Salisbury Plain…

”Young people will be able to choose between:

“Applying for a competitive, full-time military commission over 12 months in the armed forces or UK cyber defence, where young people will learn and take part in logistics, cyber security, procurement or civil response operations. This placement will be selective, so that our world leading armed forces recruit and train the brightest and the best”."

Or civic volunteering.

RAF (as an example) officer training is 24 weeks ish. Work out the payback.

They understand that you hate your father because he voted different to you in the referendum? Unbelievable. What a fùcked up family you must have. Explains a lot about you.

PMSL...

You f ucked up your kids/grand kids life chances by your vote...

Says a lot about you...

Give it time and they may end up hating you

But how come you won't answer whether you did national service?

Yes or no?

Even if I did, they’d never, ever hate me like you hate your father. Is there a lot more about the hatred of your father that you are not telling us?

But how come you won't answer whether you did national service?

Don't be stupid. You do know when national service ended in this country, don't you or are you just generally thick?
