What does constitutional crisis have to do with foreign wars?

The thread title is about constitutional crisis, not about surviving on powdered eggs (or whatever).

It's the biggest constitutional crisis for over 100 years and it will be years before the country recovers. Many of us alive today won't witness a recovery in terms of values or what we've been brought up to understand as the way our constitutional democracy works.

It's very understandable no one has posted on here, apart from EV (whose comments are highly valued of course.

The thread title could have been written by an inebriated schoolboy. Sigh.

How utterly inconvenient ( being facetious )

It probably is to those who didn't live through WWII, as they haven't a clue---------too young to remember what many of us went through or were actually born when the war was on and the REAL hardships it brought.

They've never lived !!

But is it?

What about all those smaller wars we have entered into in recent times? With all the loss of (very often innocent) life. All the destabilisation of lives in foreign countries albeit the case that those lives were not completely hunky-dory beforehand?

Is it really all down to world economics. I don't think it should be.

Get our priorities right?
