Petition signed, Email sent to MP and support & attachment sent to Mole Valley D.C. Just couldn't do this until now as too incensed at this very "home counties" attitude to our armed forces and their families! Apologies to those who don't subscribe to this poisonous philosophy and do live in the Home Counties! What with the "slip the uniform off please as we don't wish to offend" reception at Selly Oak, and the Nimbies at Ashstead, it is surely time to lay it on the line to the great British Public. You may not like Iraq and Afghanistan being on the news every night, but how much more uncomfortable for you if you had to be there risking your life, or worse still worried sick about your loved one who is doing just that!
That feels better! Thanks to Gonzo and Rocket Chucker for inspiration and some plagiarism on my part. Thanks also to Tigs2 for calming us all down and making us keep our eye on the ball. Finally thanks to SSAFA for being there for our lads and lasses, and their families!
