What a farce. We Brits don't need the French parading around our city. We want them to be defending their shores.
The French are not our Friends, as they keep sending their Rubbish by Boat over the channel.
Their time would be better spent guarding the beaches of calais
What’s next
The Germans
The Italians
Britain and France allies since 1904. We fought in 2 World Wars ,and are in NATO! Long live this alliance!
What Vern is really saying is "why don't the other Europeans like us?"
Did they come over on rubber boats, if not why they cannot stop them or just let them go. So now any one can attack the palace and be let past.
Guard the south coast instead.
High treason under English Law (the real Law of England and of the English) to bring foreign troops here and put them in charge of anything. English Law, gobsh!tes, read it and understand it.
What a load of bollocks. One minute the French are threatening all sorts over Brexit, including cutting off electricity to the Channel Islands, the next they are marching through London celebrating our fantastic alliance. Either you have one or the other. You can't have both.
That dude saying Buck Ing HAAM was painful 💀
both country have problem in recruit in Arm force.
This is what teamwork, trust, and love look like.
my parisi mother will be overjoyed at this news…

I’m ex-British Army. I have good connections with l’armée de terre. I’m a firm believer in enhanced relations focussing on enhanced interoperability.
Je suis ancien combattant britannique. J’ai pas mal des amis dans l’Armée de Terre (126RI en particulier). Je crois au renforcement des relations entre les forces armées françaises et britanniques, en mettant l’accent sur l’interopérabilité encore élevé.
It is strange that they forgot about the main cannon fodder of the First World War. Russia and France entered into a military alliance back in 1892.
Standards have really slipped 1:26
They cant even stop the boats , and remember ww2 😂😂 the Germans marching in the french capital 😂😂
We call it "changing of the guard" in English.
Waiting for the Kremlin guards to visit both palaces 😅
I'm surprised french do not wear pink !
Teamwork 😂😂😂😂 what a bunch of fawning melts. Perhaps visit a towns with boat folk hotels and ask them how they feel about french teamwork…..pathetic
France only supports France, they will throw any country under the bus, America found that out after 911.
