    Something like
    ''Seeing how there is no one more qualified I've decided to extend my say at parly till such a person is 1st found then personally trained by me as your leader...

    Pro-tip: Never wear red shirts to political rallys/riots.

    400 or so from 9 SAI with a couple of Casspirs & Mambas. Haven't heard anything about their kit.
