Do the antics of The Rt. Hon. Robert Ben Lobban Wallace, MP, Former Captain in the Scots Guards and currently HM’s Secretary of State for Defence, have President Putin shaking in his boots?
In a Cabinet led by Boris Johnson, with Liz Truss as Foreign Secretary, in a Parliamentary House led by Jacob Rees Mogg, perhaps you haven’t noticed him. Just another Clown in a Circus, you may think, or a film directed by Mel Brooks.
Wallace mocks Russia’ boasting of how in the Crimean War some Scotsman booted Ivan’s backside, Well the Soviets booted the Nazis back to Berlin and beyond and would have got to Calais had not the Brits had their arms twisted by the Americans and to attack France from the West.
In 1940 the British Expeditionary Force sat on their bums and twiddled their thumbs before their brown-trousered scuttle to Dunkirk, leaving guns and trucks behind them which the Nazis found handy for their attack on the Soviets the following year.
The Argylls were going to do the Divil and All in South Armagh as Mad Mitch MP boasted but they met more than their match there. They boasted “Jocks Rule Here” on a notice in their beleaguered fortress in Crossmaglen, only to find “Jocks Don’t Even Rule Scotland” painted beneath it.
