Yes, the young will be the ones fighting it, but us oldies will suffer hugely as well.
We will not be bystanders.
War will not be the same as last time, much will be electronic, so no money, no food, no water supplies.
This will affect us oldies far more than it will affect the younger, fitter members of Society.

Cyber war is what will destroy us oldies.
The UK has no anti ballistic missile capability, so we will just back down.

As I said earlier, when someone stands up to them they scuttle off with their tails between their legs.
Actually, I'm pleased that Boris didn't back down, which I was worried he would do. After all, he has backed down regarding other things...
and perhaps there's more to come on offer from him yet.

I'm going to write to my MP and demand that some French ships are sunk today just on principle.

Actually, some good friends of ours have a cottage in the Loire Valley (which they can't get to right now!) but have told us how well they get on with their neighbours. They've had help with doing up the roof, for example, and rely on them to let them know if there are any problems with the property whilst they're here in the UK.
Yes, I'm sure - like everywhere else - there are good as well as bad in France...
well, except for Paris, of course.
