The UK’s top ‘other ranks’ soldier has said that British troops must be ready to fight Russia, and should prepare their families for the prospect of an “extended” deployment.

His advice comes after the UK’s new head of General Staff said that British forces must become capable of “defeating Russia in battle.”

Writing for the latest issue of the British Army’s ‘Soldier’ magazine, Carney said that “the Army is shaping itself to meet the threat from Russia,” and “will be ready, with the right equipment, to play our part in deterring a future war in Europe.”

      Ukraine has lost more soldiers already than the UK has soldiers in its entire army. The UK is a joke. Only things they are good at are spying, sabotage and worshipping their degenerate royals.

        Don’t forget being a safe haven for stolen capital. But they are, it seems, quite good at it.
