‘Ironic one of the last Brits with grit is in the Old Bailey.’
Thousands of other Brits are fighting the WOT alongside US troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, but I’m sure they appreciate that kick in the balls delivered from the safety of your home, thousands of miles from the front line.
Nice use of imagery. Well said.

Doing the math, Great Britain has a population of about 61 million, and an army with about 145,000 troops — or roughly 0.002 of the total. The army has been and remains part of the “few” with grit - plus one prisoner ...
Just reading, last month it took six riot police officers wearing protective gear to storm a pub in Warwickshire and require a “subject” to extinguish a cigarette.
Hopefully, the troops on the line fighting against terror can realize the irony of that bit of news.
