Our troops display the bravery.
We have lost patience with this Defence minister, the MOD bureaucrats and the Labour party and Blair's military adventures.

How about Mr Ainsworth offering to serve a year as a military auxiliary out in Afghanistan alongside British troops? Or perhaps Mr Ainsworth would rather do the talking, while it is others who do the fighting and dying?

Why should we be patient? I want an election NOW to get rid of Bob Ainsworth the most appallingly useless defence secretary of all time.

It's time The Conservatives stated their feelings about this terrible and unwinnable war. We need to get out of Afghanistan before we are thrown out.
