Мой перевод неправильный?
The thing is that I have heard that expression from the Secretary of State for Foreign of the UK. It's from Dominic Raab's speech. He said no ifs or buts. :)
But I already googled and found out that expression is used sometimes like no ifs, ands or buts)
Uly, can you help me to clarify my assumption? How do I use that expression in my daily life? Is it correct - We made this decision with no ifs or buts.?
Or my guess?

Hi, sorry, I just saw your messages. We normally use this phrase to say that we won’t accept any excuses. “I want this house cleaned by the time I get home from work — no ifs, ands or buts!”
