Boris & support our troops

I for one support our service personnel. Now is the time for someone, Boris maybe, to start a real, open and honorable support programme, throughout the UK via our local news media, local MPs and Councilors (what ever party).
Lobby, lobby and lobby some more. I this morning written to my local MP, local Councilors and press.

I remember being in the "Big Easy" where I first saw the stickers, patches, banners et al, saying "These colors (US spelling) don't run".

Our problem in the UK is we lack any form of patriotism any more, I'm proud to be Welsh thus British!

Lets start,and not leave up to the British Legion, 'tis folks on the street that'll get it moving. Lobby our local Cadet Corps to get them to parade with all three branches together. We have a local school where Old Boys have already died or been maimed.

Rant over, comments please.
