      i think this is actually one of the propaganda things to get people to join only because it mentions meals and that was a big part of getting people to join

      @@TinyBearTim its anti war. the person i was replying to was saying it was propaganda to get people to join the war, which it clearly isnt, its being sarcastic. i guess if you want to say "well technically" then sure its propaganda against the war so still propaganda, but i was obviously saying its not pro war propaganda

      I think you’ve missed the point of the song, this whole song is a sarcastic criticism of world war one.

    A rather fine tune to march to actually, helps keep you in step. We took part in a fairly large reenactment before old Rona turned up and sung this for a laugh. Not a bad wee ditty. Course helps to be oiled with gunpowder first (rum in tea)

      It's our culture we want to sustain, Dubai don't mind foreign citizens so long as they abide their tradition, you don't have to be from here to be British, and that's coming from someone with White, British ethnicity
