I think you would have to ask the military. Would our soldiers be willing to do away with hundreds of years of history and merge into an international force? No, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't. And anyway, the UN already has an international peace keeping force. Furthermore, I'm not willing to hand over my national security to a foreign power. What next? The security services? MI5? MI6?

Britain is currently leading the way (along with the USA) against the ebola outbreak committing hundreds - and eventually thousands - of troops. Our European "brethren" haven't stepped up to the plate at all. If this was ever to be seriously considered the first people who should be consulted is the military. This, like everything else to do with the military, cannot be worked out by civilians
