I presume, Mr Liddell-Grainger, you are one of the many MPs I met last year - I had so many 'popping in' to tell me how hard life must have been and tending an ever-so-sympathetic ear, yet at the same time scraping for a bit of 'gen' to help secure your position in the 'house'.
Thanks for your 'sympathy', but I really have doubts as to your and many of your kind's actual motivation for digging into something which is:
a. beyond your comprehension
and b. a vehicle to further your political presence.
If you can do something, then I would be very, VERY appreciative, but slamming the Royal Air Force does not help anybody. It comes down to money - and that is beyond me, my immediate superior (line manager for those of that bent) or anyone else up the ladder.
Stretched, working hard with the resources we are left with and rather quite p*ssed off that those who might be able to intervene are looking in the wrong place.
Convince us, in this open forum, that your interest is well founded.
