David Craig, on June 27th, 2010While the nation seems fixated on the result of the football match between England and Germany, perhaps there is another result which is more deserving of our attention. In the last week, 8 British soldiers died in Afghanistan.
This is a pointless war. We are seen as the occupying army propping up a corrupt and incompetent shambles of a government. We are losing. The Afghans know we will leave in a few years and then all those who collaborated with us will either be given asylum in Britain or be slaughtered. British lives are being thrown away for nothing. It’s a pity none of our greedy, expenses-fiddling politicians have the courage to admit the truth.
