What's Going on With the British Army in 19 17?

The british are facing a certain amount of crisis, as you say, in 19 17. But it seems less serious then than masly what the other belligerents are experiencing. One might even say that their backs are to the wall, but not to the channel exactly. See what i get there. If anybody wants to look up certain speeches given by certain or certain documents issued by certain generals, then, in 19 18, feel free for that little easter age.
