As it happens, my grandad also fought in a war against oppression from another country. That oppressor was very close to home.
France and Germany have of course played soft. I can see that. I’d applaud them if they did more, but that’s different than the tanks coming from the EU. Not being rude here, but you can see why I make a fuss between the tanks having French or German flags on them versus them having EU flags, yeh? Once it’s an EU flag, I’m involved. I don’t want the EU making that decision for me/my country.
