Yes he did come across as a bit patronising that one. :roll:
Why? Because I can!

I beg to disagree. :o

The RM Major in question handled the situation he was in perfectly, in the circumstances. He acted like a 'teacher' because the people he was trying to impart information to, were acting like 'children'. Watch it again if you can, and I think you'll change your mind. He ended up getting the message over, and never lost his temper throughout. Job done.

It was more like an Irish parliament until he took the stance he did. Any one else would have probably ended up shooting them! :wink:

No names, no pack-drill!

Jonboy and Jules, there's two ways of looking at what happened. (I didn't see the prog, but have the gist of whaqt went on)
A Bootneck will adopt one of two approaches.
1) "You have a problem? I'm all ears, tell me."
2) "When I'm talking, you listen!"
Sounds as if our man tried both. Iranian Parliament; Riot in a shed. 8)
You should talk to somebody who gives a f**k.
