18 years of austerity and they’re surprised that nobody cares about their country.

Lmao even their ultraalarmist screams are still full of copium, they can't decide if the enemy is strong or weak.

Also, the whole notion that a country the size of UK that has no industrial base to speak of could take on Russia is deeply hilarious.
