Comment posted Argylls to be scrapped – along with the best recruiting battalion in the army by Keith McMillan.
“Cost cutting” that’s a laugh! Why do you need high numbers of military when you have new technology and a world army at your finger tips?(UN and NATO come to mind) smoke and mirrors
Is it not like Salmond’s one size fits all national police force (militia){ may like to look at PACE law), yeah Argyll needs the same type of policing as Glasgow or Edinburgh?
But don’t worry people we are in safe hands our masters in Europe have a plan! Welcome to Germany 1942 oops sorry Britain 2012.
Its time our army and police forces pulled their service to the corporation that is the government, tell them to get stuffed I bet the people of this island would support them fully.

H20: see you are a magnet for thumbs down LOL
Think you have helped to clarify some opinions I had about you, But the Iraq war was legal the same as every war the bankers and globalist will set up
Legal and illegal is a system of law created by empire (statute law= law of control) but I understand the meaning of the word within your use of the word. The war is actually unlawful (taken from common law= justice the peoples law)
Have you got some info on this “social democratic independent Scotland”? Sounds like the system forced on us already I would be more for a free trade republic - Proposal for independent Scotland to share UK welfare system admin to 2020+
Dougie: LOL can you tell me is Alex Salmond fat? Can you provide proof that I indeed hate Alex? (or are you making an assumption from reading text?) I do hate what Alex Salmond control of the SNP is doing to my country (funny he has made smokers leopards in this country yet he will not address obesity)
As for my statement to H20 did he not make the remark “Makes me wonder why you remain in Scotland?” so my counter of him moving to Europe is fair!
How you can find my view of the world as offensive is actually a joke! How do you know my view? We have never spoken of it! But perhaps you enjoy being a consumer in the eyes of our corporate slavery system rather than a living sentiment man living in a world of abundance?
Or are you trying to hold me to your view of society? Can you provide my social contract with my wet signed signature? Can you even provide the simple document stating the rules, benefits, duties and privileges along with the name of the society?
I can’t talk for UKIP but I find your interpretation of them very offensive, from what I have seen about them is they have the guts to talk about immigration and from what I have seen in England I think they are right to bring the issue to the table, Just like the Scottish people have the right to know the direction salmond and his Party wish to take our country - Proposal for independent Scotland to share UK welfare system admin to 2020+
H20: and who are your bedfellows? Guess you support fake wars (Iraq, Libya and Afghanistan) guess you’re happy to send our young kids to “Banker” wars, bring them back as injured and disabled people, then you can make yourself feel good by donating to help for hero’s just have a look how your government treats returning soldiers (cast them aside)
5 Countries would not join the IMF Central banking fraud! Can you guess who they are? Here is a clue (Iraq, Libya, Syria, North Korea and Iran) your tax money at work LOL 2 down 3 to go.
Millions of people killed for banker and company profits, thousands of our kids dead or disabled by these banker wars you support by default, well done you!! - First Minister’s call for ‘grown up politics’ countered by order – from the top
Robert I would say its time to end Argyll and Bute council and move back to local councils - Proposal for independent Scotland to share UK welfare system admin to 2020+
“embrace change don’t fear it” LOL only an idiot/ fool would rush into this changeSalmond is nothing more than a EU puppet and he is leading the blind into a euro state with the illusion of independence
the Pro independence bunch in scotland are dreaming of bringing out the walace, but cant see independence under salmond is bringing out the Gimp

I am repeating myself, but there are Tory grandees spinning madly in their graves at this pathetic excuse of a Tory government’s destruction of the British Army. My understanding is that they want the TA to supplement the Regulars. That will never work. With due respect to the Terriers, they can never be as well trained and prepared as regulars. And worse still, what employer in their right mind will employ, or allow their staff to join, the TA? TA troops will be away from their full time job most of the time to cover the short fall, leaving an employer to cover for the gap that will be created.
As an ex-Royal Marine and a (soon to be) ex-Tory voter I could weep

This Steve Bell cartoon (http://www.guardian.co.uk/global/cartoon/2012/jul/05/steve-bell-defence-cuts) says it all but Rudyard Kipling said it better when he wrote “Tommy”.
“For it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ “Chuck him out, the brute!”
But it’s “Saviour of ‘is country,” when the guns begin to shoot;
An’ it’s Tommy this, an’ Tommy that, an’ anything you please;
But Tommy ain’t a bloomin’ fool – you bet that Tommy sees!”

The Army website currently says:
‘Joining the Army as a Territorial means that you do all your training and military duties in your spare time.’
We understand that Territorials will have to take one year off out of five to retrain.
This statement also obliterates the impact on employers and the imperative for their active collaboration in the present scheme to place much heavier reliance on the role of a volunteer force in active operations.

Getting rid of the fusiliers and down sizing the Army means my uncle died for nothing during the last war. We cant down size the Forces they are needed to protect this country. What we need is to get rid of the useless polititions who now nothing about the orderniry people.

Edie, complaining that your uncle “died for nothing” makes it sound as if this is the first time since the last war that cuts in our armed forces have been implemented. Our forces have been undergoing down sizing ever since the last war. It is nothing new. There were 375,000 in the armed forces in 1962 (50 years ago) Cuts have happened several times since then and none of those, like the current proposals, are anything to do with why your uncle died. He did so, like far too many other brave men, to save a country, not an army.
