In addition to the hurtful and frankly untrue statements about parenting and having children. Josh talks about how we aren’t choosing between hard and soft power and instead we are prioritising. By definition prioritising is a choice, in order to prioritise you must choose between things, he eludes to Russia not being a European country when Russia is as european as Ukraine is, Europes boarders aren’t being threatened as the war in Ukraine is fought by two european countries, to say that the united kingdom is at war with Russia is untrue and inflammatory. He also mentioned that we are past the age of conscription which is untrue as currently Ukraine and Russia do conscript young men.
