If being humiliated by the sheep lovers isn't bad enough, the Poms are being slapped around the head in their own air space by the Russians....

Or not just blindly looking for a story to fill his inferiority complex.

Why would Cameron let a story out that allows the Forces to claim they're under funded?

You're asking the wrong question......

I know you're struggling to deal with your country's diminished role in world affairs so let's get back to the cricket.....oh wait on....it's the same there as well...

I know it’s early days but this gets my vote for most ludicrous segue of the year. Fuck me! England lose a game of cricket and it’s bring on WWIII and Russian expansionism. Talk about drawing a long bow, Jesus Christ.
