@dean1wg @JoePowe28862766 It was throwing it down earlier. But glorious now. Enjoy your stand down!

@JoePowe28862766 Ye heavy rain hopefully clearing up this afternoon.

If you’re going to be a bear, be a grizzly. Barcelona for a few days stand down.

@Mr_Andrew_Fox It still staggers me that there wasn’t this kind of disproportionate response when they fired at a Royal Navy Vessel. It’s definitely making them think twice about trying their luck again. Israel are (justifiably) done with proportionality.
English
@Mr_Andrew_Fox Aggressive?
Sweden asked if they could join.
NATO said "Sure, it'll be great to have you in the club"
Sweden replied "Sweet!"
Sweden are now a part of NATO, where was the aggression and who is being threatened?
English
I can’t believe NATO has aggressively expanded like this by forcing the Swedish to join. This is so threatening!
Visegrád 24@visegrad24
BREAKING: Sweden just officially became a NATO member. The documents were handed over to Secretary of State Antony Blinken moments ago in Washington D.C. Welcome to NATO Sweden! 🇸🇪

@Mr_Andrew_Fox Is he/she a rescue? They’re bloody awesome. Would love a Mali in the future.
English
@Mr_Andrew_Fox Well they’re playing England next round. So I think they probably will
English
I doubt Wales are going to win the RWC so the question is, who to support as a second choice?
I’d normally go for my fellow Celts, Ireland, but Sexton is so fantastically dislikeable, I just can’t. Biggest twat in rugby. So, once Wales are out, go All Blacks, I guess.

@RickEBlaine2022 @Mr_Andrew_Fox @ClarkeMicah I think you’ll find he does. He gets it better than most.

@Mr_Andrew_Fox @ClarkeMicah Andrew, you don't do history, do you, son?
Sit down, lad.

@Davekidd_58 @andNickMullins Isn’t that how both teams release their team news on Twitter? Wales do it in one and England in 3. I think you may be reading too much into it.
English
And the roof will be open in Cardiff to funnel the noise & heat. Impossible to call. Both teams desperate for a win.
English
@allybigwood That was quite an unpleasant watch to be honest. But as they say ‘win ugly’

@MelanieHewitt61 @emmasaurustex Silly & likeable are my ‘go to’s’ when it comes to movies.
English
@willnorthcott1 @emmasaurustex Aah, yes - the great Sean. The quality mark in any movie. I also love ‘Con Air’ - absolute nonsense of course, but fast moving, silly & likeable fun.
English
@MelanieHewitt61 @emmasaurustex See I think the rock is the one. Though I think that’s more for the late great Sean connery’s presence.
English
@Mr_Andrew_Fox Still shocks me that Lehman actually went along with that. Half expected him to just deny the lad a goal

So sweet of Man Utd’s defence to turn out for Rosicky’s testimonial.

@danwootton Hi Dan, I was beside you there today. Nothing says "quiet reflection" like doing 4 takes of that video. Then directing your friend to "make sure you get the shot of me praying after I lay the flowers" and checking the video after each effort.
English
@WHearnshaw @Mack_HUFC @Mr_Andrew_Fox Would you mind linking the research as I have genuinely not seen it? Also I guess the argument is discipline, uniformity and being smart. But I’m not paid enough to tell you why just giving you my view.
English
@willnorthcott1 @Mack_HUFC @Mr_Andrew_Fox Because there isn't a genuine reason not to allow them. I can't imagine the difference between the Services will remain much longer
Add to that the research that has shown not being able to explain the "no beards" rule is putting potential recruits off joining
Its just silly
English
@WHearnshaw @Mack_HUFC @Mr_Andrew_Fox I don’t see how being able to have a beard aside from religious reasons is something that would make a more just culture if it’s something one doesn’t agree with then maybe a career in the army may not be for them. You could honestly write essays on this and we’ll always disagree
English
@Mack_HUFC @Mr_Andrew_Fox @willnorthcott1 The organisation has also gone a long way to try and encourage Reasonable Challenge and a more Just Culture
That falls apart when the answer to "why can't we allow beards" doesn't exist beyond "some people don't like how they look"
English
@Mack_HUFC @Mr_Andrew_Fox Change is healthy but not this. This isn’t a change to promote anything good. It just doesn’t look good and you certainly won’t look or feel as smart as you could.
English
@Mr_Andrew_Fox So essentially your subjective opinion is worth more than mine?
Im not sneering at women or any other group of people who make up the current work force, meerly stating that the army's view on appearance is outdated and not in line with the other services.
