PM "Budget Brown"
Just a little pet theory I have as to some of the forces problems, would appreciate some constructive discussion.
Basically I would never think that PM Brown et al are deliberately undermining the Military but due to their lack of direct experience (eg previous service or family serving) they have over time become complacent about the freedom we have today - and as such almost take it for granted? This applies to most MP's I would guess.
Maybe prospective PM's should spend a year working directly within say the forces, NHS, schools etc so they can have first hand experience of the consequences of their actions. I also found out that the Chief of Staff's and senior politicians in the Pentagon overlook the Arlington National Cemetery for just such a reason.
Or Maybe he's just a plank?
