Having a big mouth

I would guess that one of the biggest risk atm is the blustering of our useless government.

Here is the Head of the Army saying we must be in a position to fight a war in 3 years yet out government is goading Putin atm.

Keep prepping guys. A supply chain catastrophe is almost here and that is before a war.

It’s never to late to start prepping, concentrate on basic needs for when TSHTF, every little thing will help.

Every tin of corned beef, every gallon of water saved, a picnic stove, a torch and spare batteries, a few
pain killers, a first aid kit, all will make a difference.

Even with just a fiver a week it will soon build up to cover a range of events that could occur, don’t go
mad work to a plan.

When TSHTF not just war, but a power outage, internet down (no shops), fire, flood, even job loss,
shit events come in all shapes and sizes, be prepared.

successive governments have reduced the size of the British Army so now it isnt much more than a token force, who the hell wants to be a soldier these days? if there was a war we would have to have conscription nobody would volunteer unlike WW2.
Russian has lost so many soldiers they are dragging people out of night clubs to fight on the front line, so we have a few years to bolster the armed forces.

And just who will this war be with ... nato is by far ...very far the most powerful force on the planet.


China still has a long long way to go to match usa and the USA don't stand alone.

Their's a ongoing campaign to scair us into believing war is just around the corner ,look closer and see who is pushing ...rearm spend spend spend.

True but it is mainly the Merkins. They, or Trump, won't let Merkin lives be wasted because Two Tier or other European leaders have bitten off more than they can chew.

there were no new wars in Trumps previous term and there probably wont be in the next one if he has anything to do with it, so we have 4 years to get our armed forces up to scratch, it will probably take Putin that long to rearm and replace all those soldiers he has lost already, thats if he survives the peace deal Trump wants to do when he enters the White House.

Rearming the west is already happening most of the stuff that goes Ukraines was is our old stuff and we are replacing it with new a convenient way to get Ukraine to chip in to nato Rearming.

Australia sent tanks that it was given after the 1st gulf war thay had kept them in storage ever since ,then selling them to Ukraine and reordering new ones from uncle sam .

[bigpaul]

but where do we get new stuff from? imports I'm guessing.
some of the uniforms are made in China FFS.

was said this morning " the army would last 6 months" if there was another war.
