HOW much longer should the UK stand on the sidelines in the fight against Isis?
Granted we are active in Iraq, but not Syria. We are a military superpower, we are a permanent member of the UN Security Council, still with big influence.
Our ally France was attacked and yet we still have to persuade our opposition party, Labour, to side with David Cameron.
We should all unite to fight off Isis before it’s too late.
Remember Winston Churchill trying to persuade the USA to get involved in the Second World War fell on deaf ears until Pearl Harbour.
Churchill also said the UK and French republic shall defend to the death our native soil.
What’s gone wrong since the Second World War?
