        @BBCBreaking Here's an idea for a large rapid deployment task force, send every MP that votes for a war & let them fight if they're so keen

        @BBCBreaking let's re - invent the wheel, back in the 90s we had the rapid reaction brigade. Government thought it pointless.

        @BBCBreaking let me guess 16 air assult brigade and 3 Commando brigades. Let the military lead on this not pencil pushers.
