LABOUR TOADY NOT FIT TO SHINE THEIR BOOTS!

George Foulkes, Baron Foulkes of Cumnock
BELOW IS AN EXTRACT FROM an ARTICLE in The DAILY MAIL by TIM SHIPMAN.

A Labour peer caused outrage yesterday after he accused Britain's top soldier of disloyalty and helping the Taliban.
Lord Foulkes attacked General Sir Richard Dannatt for daring to speak out about the shortage of equipment for troops in Afghanistan.
He said public demands for more helicopters by General Dannatt and Sir Jock Stirrup, Chief of the Defence Staff, were 'giving succour to the enemy'.
Shadow Defence Minister Gerald Howarth said: 'It is outrageous for Lord Foulkes to accuse an outstanding general of helping to undermine the mission in Afghanistan.
'General Dannatt, a holder of the Military Cross, has not only inspired his men through his leadership, but has done more than anyone else to generate the tremendous public support which now manifests itself across the country for our Armed Forces.'
Liberal Democrat foreign affairs spokesman Edward Davey said: 'Considering this Government's failure to provide either a coherent strategy or adequate kit for the mission in Afghanistan, Richard Dannatt and Jock Stirrup have shown admirable restraint.

Shit, Barking Spider. I'd like a few minutes alone with that bugger Foulkes. You call them Labour over here we call them Democrats, but they're all the same: worthless bottom feeders bleeding us all dry and taking the good down with them.

Damn: I need my happy drink it would appear.

I know who it is giving succour to the fucking enemy. It is the bastards who refuse to equip our soldiers properly. Them, and their scum-for-brains apologists, like Foulkes. I'd rather we didn't have soldiesr in Afghanistan but if they are there the least the fucknut government can do is make sure they are properly tooled up for the job, whatever the job is.
