I really hope contingency plans are in place so should they be used to strike against our allies or their interests we can quickly close our airbases to them and require them to leave.

Why would you need 10 C17s to take one oil tanker? It has like 20 unarmed crew members?
> CBS News has reported that the US would rather seize the tanker than sink it.
That’s very thoughtful of them. Cos sinking an oil tanker is generally considered A Bad Thing.

10 C17s seems overkill for apprehending a single oil tanker, I think it’s more likely this is moving some equipment which was stationed in Europe as a Ukraine contingency back to the US. Perhaps something related to the Global Hawk or Rivet Joint fleet.

The failed isolationist project has earned us the position of staging ground for Greenland. ☠️

Imagine the US launching an invasion of Greenland from UK soil.

Lmao. UK is literally a puppet slave state at this point. Trump will invade Greenland and we will grovel before him

Oh for *the love of god*
We are what? 6 days into the new year. Can we *please* not launch an assault on Greenland from UK soil and obliterate NATO? I’ve had enough crises in my tenure on this planet.

We need to stop allowing the US to use our bases while they continue to threaten our allies and international law.

They were carrying out operations at Fairford today with the Ospreys.

The UK is so pathetic, I bet if they kidnapped Starmmer he would still avoid condeming their actions from his Prison cell in the US.
