Maybe the tories will make military service mandatory again as a precaution.

You aren't paying attention to what I'm actually saying. To be frank I'm really not inclined to go to too much effort spelling it out as people rarely accept it at the time and quickly forget about it when the significance of what I've been saying comes to light.
And you are not listening, just repeating what you say without context. Again, Russia has comitted the bulk of its professional soldiers to this war and miscalculated.
Numbers I've seen so far are around the order of 20K new soldiers sent to Belarus, and Belarus having about 7K currently available - it would definitely fail harder than the last time.
It's more likely they will try to sabotage undersea links than a direct aasualt on the UK. Poisoning reservoirs etc
Thankfully the Pentagon and MoD as well as all the other agencies don't require the competence of the politicians to function.
Russia has committed a large amount of the "tip of the spear" and a lot of their office class, etc. - but that doesn't mean they are as much out of this fight as people seem to like to believe, unfortunately some of the facts can be seen in that light, which is what people want to believe, which further reinforces people's thinking and nothing I'll say will change that.

Political interference can undo the effectiveness of those agencies however
certain people in the MoD were amongst the few who clearly saw what was going on leading up to this war and how to effectively deal with it - unfortunately many others in official capacity were in denial, etc.I see you still want to murder 140 million men, women and children then.
I suppose for sociopaths like you dehumanising people makes it easier to "eradicate" them. You are sick in the same way that russian soldiers murdering civilians are sick, you're exactly the same as that scum, you disgust me.
So.... Scotland then? I dunno Truss might let it go just to **** off the SNP
If a nuke were to go off in one of the northern glens, very few people would actually notice.
I'd have a lot more sympathy for Russians if it wasn't for - whenever you see a Russian having an opinion - when they are [reasonably] safe to say whatever - their anti-war complaints are more about saving their own skin or (if mobilised) that they weren't given adequate/modern equipment and very little do you hear any concerns for the people of Ukraine and other human elements to the story. Sure some of that is propaganda at work but I've seen a fair bit of it in conversational settings, etc. from other sources as well.
EDIT: I've occasionally watched videos by this YouTuber https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96TsPKhAc0M they give a fair insight into the real state of things in Russia - though left for Georgia more recently for their own safety - but being a relatively frank source shows there sadly is a sizeable contingent in Russia who are fully OK with what is going on in Ukraine.

I don't agree: it is good for morale, shows the strength of their morale, and openly mocks Russia. Russia/Putin being seen as a total laughing stock is a big win for Ukraine.
Russia unlike the west uses its junior officers in the role the UK would use a Sargent, and this is the problem. A high level of officers have been removed from the rosters - so you now have units effectively leaderless, all the way up to field army command (at least 8 Generals, and around 100 Majors, Lt COL and COL killed) and hundreds more Junior Officers. The call up demonstrates they are still hammering away at full meat grinder and wave of soldiers mode, which so far hasnt worked in the 2022 battlefield. Yes the VDV tried with an airbourne assault with full electronic support on DDay - but that ended up as another Market Garden moment, as the rushing troops were still on teh 3 day supplies plan.
Russia will simply keep throwing more and more bodies at this problem, and the USA will keep supplying *just enough* for AFU to keep them at bay
If we were in a state of total war (which won't happen anyway but whatever) I think you'd be surprised at how stoic most people are.
LOL - they are not! Never happened during WW2 and wont happen now
