General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Well the MOD have truly got egg on their faces and made a laughing stock of the whole country if you ask me. Looks like policy on the run, yes they can sell their stories, no they can't, what the hell will they think of tomorrow? Didn't any of those highly paid bureaucrats and MOD personnel think through the consequences of their decisions just for one minute.

I agree, god help any poor unfortunate military personnel that get taken captive by the Iranians after their hastily retracted confessions, we were mistreated blah blah blah, don't think the next lot will be playing table tennis?? Even George Bush couldn't have come up with such a stuff up. Rule Britannia? More like Fool Britannia - apologies to any past or present serving personnel but this must be how Britain will be seen throughout the Middle East after this schemozzle???
