Ironically if this is the hill Boris chooses to die on he may well redeem himself in the eyes of his strongest detractors.
I bet that’s going to go down _really_ well with the people the government specifically trained to work outside the law….
Deflection much…
Only a anti British enemy of people middle class ruk student would say something like that.
Paratroopers killing UK denizens on UK streets obviously doesn’t ring a bell for him. He’s probably delighted now he can flounce off to write his book about shakespear.
Hot take: Troops operating in war zones in foreign lands should be above most laws ngl.
Only MPs and certain members of the police are above the law.
Except the British Army in NI that is.
Chris Ryan’s view, FWIW:
[A new low as the BBC uses SASR (Australian SAS) footage and personnel to give credence to their baseless assumptions about the British SAS. Take that footage/hearsay away and it’s a reporter’s interpretation/opinion at best. This is up there with Bashir #Panorama](https://twitter.com/exSASChrisRyan/status/1546952969123495937)
[Food for thought – The @BBC has helped re-energise death warrants of any ANSF soldiers left behind in Afghanistan. #Panorama has given the Taliban legitimacy to keep hunting them down. I can tell you now that no soul will be spared and unthinkable abuses will occur.](https://twitter.com/exSASChrisRyan/status/1546972194479251456)
*cough* Sergeant Blackman *cough*
I note he didn’t say “no one is above the law”
Ha, yeah right – Ireland.
Elite forces are always used for a reason. Don’t expect them to be anything civilised. Trust the BBC to try to stir up anti British feeling.

Shame the PM is apparently!
Or alternate take “man who is well aware he won’t be around to deal with it talks about consequences he won’t have to deliver”
Insert the Ron Burgundy “I don’t believe you” gif.
No UK troops above law. Prime Ministers on the other hand …
Wouldn’t have happened if a labour government hadn’t invaded the middle east.
But yet they are trying to cancel investigation/justice process of historical crimes ?
Except those who [committed their crimes in Northern Ireland](https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/queens-speech-northern-ireland-veterans-b2075489.html). They’re to be totally above the law because the UK Government might have ordered some of their crimes and well, we can’t have that coming out.
Except in northern Ireland it seems .
