I thought Brown was going to bring the troops home when he became PM, that was what we were told.
Will this mean that the US will follow suit? Have forces in the US been told they would be coming home anytime soon?
This will be a huge kick in the morale nuts for troops expecting to come home this spring. I wonder if we'll see a surge of people leaving the forces now, theres only so much messing about someone will take.
I still say we should have compulsory national service for the children of those in power, would be interesting to see how long wars go on for then.
