We British citizens have been utterly let down by this country we love! But now it’s gone beyond a joke! 🤬🇬🇧
This government is actively prosecuting our own military veterans, men and women who risked everything, followed orders, and did their duty in the service of the Crown.
So tell me… why the hell would ANY young person want to join our Armed Forces today?
Why would they swear to defend a nation that turns around and throws its heroes to the wolves the moment the political wind changes? 🤷♀️
It’s never the men in suits who pay the price, is it? 🤬 They’re the ones who take us to war, safe behind their desks, in their warm offices, with their pensions and their photo-ops, while our lads and lasses bleed in the dirt. Then, years later, the same suits sign the papers to drag those same soldiers through the courts.
This isn’t leadership.
This is betrayal!!! 🤬
If you treat your veterans like criminals for doing what you sent them to do, don’t be surprised when no one wants to stand in the line of fire for you anymore. 😤🇬🇧

I never knew this before, and now that I know it, I feel compelled to send it on to my more intelligent friends in the hope that they, too, will feel edified. Isn't history more fun when you know something about it?
Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as 'plucking the yew' (or 'pluck yew').
Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew!
Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodentals fricative F', and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute! It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as 'giving the bird.'
And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing.
