‘Number 10 and the Foreign Office think Miliband is a f****** c**** and a copper-bottomed s***,


‘Number 10 and the Foreign Office think Miliband is a f****** c**** and a copper-bottomed s***,’ said the source.

‘The French hate him now and he’s got no chance of building an alliance with the US Democratic Party.’
...

Mr Miliband himself said he was determined to learn the lessons of the past, including the war in Iraq.

‘I’m clear that this is a very grave decision to take military action that the House of Commons would be making and I didn’t think that that decision should be made on an artificial timetable when the House of Commons wouldn’t even have seen the evidence today from the UN weapons inspectors,’ he said.

‘I’m determined to learn the lessons of the past, including Iraq, and we can’t have the House of Commons being asked to write a blank cheque to the PM for military action.’

What kind of a sick person waits for proof before starting military action? If we just blow some #%^@ up, they'll know we mean business. Doesn't matter whose #%^@, just blow it up.

And we'll look really tough at home, too. That's always really good.

whatever their glowingly articulate description references.

If there were more like us, perhaps people would actually learn from the mistakes of history.

Military action should be the last of last resorts.
