What, none of them can do emergencies? None? I don’t think Alister Jack mentioned that.

They can’t do emergencies. Their newest ambulance is 30 years old. Can I tell a general to stop wasting my time?

I’ve got 160 000 staff and Alister says the Army will save us with another 82?

You’ll just need to pretend they’ve been a big help or we’ll never hear the end of it.

Thanks lads! Safe journey back to Catterick but remember to think twice before calling out an NHS England ambulance.

No, really?
Got an emergency ? Need professional help ?
Well, we’ll send in the army until we can get someone qualified to do the job !
Just like having Alister Jack as Scottish Secretary until someone able to do the job comes along !

At the last count the British Army had 78 k personnel
Which in fighting terms
The best they can muster to actually put boots on the ground and fight is no more than 24 k
The RN has fit for purpose and ready to fight (exc. Nuclear subs, 1 of which stuck in refueling and another hanging by a operational thread ) 7 capitol ships
The RAF have only fit for purpose 98 front line attack aircraft
Not hard to work out who,where and what the armed forces are capable of defending far less attack
So Boris and his merry band should be most careful as to what,when and to whom they bang their global British Drums
And in all probability such drum is badly in need of a new skin,and will easily
burst upon a hard strike
And all this explains why Boris increasing
The stockpile of nuclear warheads
The Gorrila has to beat his chest somehow doth he not

The Tories response to their totally inadequate policies, blame someone else. Austerity and Brexit. Illegal wars and mass invasions killing and maiming millions. Call out the army. Instead of the midwife. Ruining a generation.
Austerity and Brexit leading to premature deaths. The response ‘call out the Army’. It is just beyond comprehension. Totally unbelievable. The Tories shamble and mess. Call an election and a IndyRef 2. To get rid of the Tories. Call them out. It is just despicable. Almost unbearable for many people. Except the Tory sycophants and their associates. Making money out of people’s misery.

Hi Jacks 7th cavalry, coming over the hills to rescue the benighted Tory three-wheeled wagon party from the pesky Jocks.

The Tories spending £Billions on the Army to drive ambulances. Cutting £Billions from the NHS. The Tories should get the priorities right. Instead of wasting £Billions of public funding.
Military funding increased from £50Billion to £55Billion.
The NHS funding cut £20Billion from 2015 to 2020.
The Tories spend more monies killing people than saving them.

As with everything else the Johnson Circus does it is about creating an impression that they have everything under control,when they haven’t.
They get away with it thanks to the Great British Press who will not criticise them for fear of undermining the system that supports their pay masters.
Perhaps it is also about Scots getting used to seeing the Great British Army on our streets which may be required to suppress any unrest following their refusal to allow us a democratic decision on our future constitution.

What’ll we do when the English government take the sodyers out of Scotland, help!!😉
I think Scotland will be much better off in the EU and of course independent, membership of a voluntary club where Scotland gets an equal say, and a big big army to help out in any crisis or emergency situation. It appeals somewhat more than some
broken down old ambulances from England, while told to be grateful you sweaty jocks, but give us all your cash and we will let you stay in the club, know what I mean! Jackboot firmly pushed into Scotland’s behind, keeping Scotland behind. No thanks.
