"There was no mutiny, no laws were broken,)
'Course here wasn't - it was all a dreadful mistake and the ones that resigned just needed a couple of weeks off!!
Try answering the specific points rather than the old usual denial with a little sprinkle of bullshit.
The Officers informed the Government that they would have no part fighting the Unionists if ordered to doi so - Bad hair day, schoolboy petulance - or what exactly.
It was a case of leading officers refusing to do what they were paid to do for political reasons, simple as that - if not, what exactly was it (or did we all dream it.
Of course, it never got beyond a threat because the occasion did not arise, but it remains what it was, the military attempting to intervene in Government policy - if not an actual mutiny a threatened one for political purposes - hair-splitting - the difference between industrial action and threatened industrial action.
You'll be scrabbling round for typos next.
