Foreign Secretary Liz Truss appeared to encourage Britons saying she would 'absolutely support' those who wished to sign up to fight as part of the Ukrainian armed forces.

Giving a speech in Estonia, Mr Johnson said: 'I can understand why people feel as they do but we have laws in our country about international conflicts and how they should be conducted.' Asked if, in the wake of Ms Truss's comments, that the Government was encouraging Britons to fight, he replied: 'The UK is not actively doing any such thing.'

Despite the warning, a military source has said that 150 of former paratroopers were on their way to Poland.

Shane, 34, a former sniper with the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment, said Ms Truss' comments on Sunday were 'the green light'

So "accidentally" threatening NATO involvement and escalating nuclear tensions, against her superior's wishes. Now "accidentally" green lighting Britons to go and act as soldiers of fortune against a foreign nation, against her superiors wishes.

"Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: '/pol/ TheImp was right again."
