Bushra Shaikh(@Bushra1Shaikh):Fake patriots strike again. They'll wave the flag, bang on about standing up to Russia and cheer Britain backing Ukraine. But mention conscription and suddenly it's "not my son." If you're against sending British kids to die in foreign wars, fair enough. Then be against ALL war consistently. You don't get to be a patriot only when someone else is doing the fighting.
