OK, here's one for you; According to sources, the troops in the stan are being shot at by Talibannies with West Brummy accents.

Is anyone bothered by this or is everyone happy as long as their invoice is paid?

Is this somewhere in the midlands?

"some paper with a really bad circulation and a habit of posting sensationalist headlines has written something that can not be substantiated but I totally believe it, what do you think?"

You're thinking of the Daily Mail. But that's OK, because if you don't believe what you read in the papers, any of them, that's fine. And then there's TV, and then there's the internet. But don't believe anything you're told, because it's all a big conspiracy. Take your information from where you want and draw your own conclusions, you are supposedly a mature adult after all.

In this case, there either are or are not British elements of the Taliban. From my discussions with friends and ex-colleagues who have been to Afghanistan, as well as media reports, I believe there are British elements fighting our forces there and that disgusts me.

That's all I was saying, without making an issue of what fcuking paper it's written in...

English

Bloody Merkinisms.

In fact, why I am quoting Orwell's book?

"A Dictionary of the English Language" was published in 1755 Samuel Johnson.

The very definition of the English language.

You look like a fool now.

I'm quite happy that Abdul Jihaddist is flying to Afghanistan (at his own expense) to get shot up by Rupert and his merry gang of squaddies.

Maybe easyJet could lay on special flights from Birmingham to Karbul. One way only

Front page news from the Independent about Talibannies with Brum accents fighting our troops in the Stan.

My opinion; a 5.56mm round is far cheaper than the truckloads of benefits they'd be entitled to if they were arrested and then flown home for tea and cakes on the taxpayer...

A 5.56mm round is indeed cheaper but then the family of the deceased might try to claim that the Army murdered them.

I would much rather be shot at by a jihadi with a paki accent than one with a Brummie accent. You just can't take the Brummie accent seriously, I mean if a Brummie Jihadist took a pot shot at me I couldn't help myself thinking of Lennie Henry shouting 'This one is for Gaza, Tommy pigdog'.
It would make me laugh so much that I would probably forget to duck
