The comments at the end of the Express article were very interesting, IMHO.
Seems that some of our British friends hold a rather low opinion of their immigrant population, suggesting that many would return to their former home countries if faced with conscription. Others offered that foreign aid and welfare spending have cut into military spending.
Interesting to get the British perspective.
“many would return to their former home countries if faced with conscription”
I’m not seeing a downside here...
