Only one question (possibly) to CAS.
As a taxpayer, aka your boss I ask.
1. Why is your service Hemmoraging staff and morale?
2. Why is whats left falling down around their ears?
3. Where are the men telling you this?
4. Why are troops being sent out under equipped, supported and relieved?
5. Why does nearly every new project spiral way over budget?
6. Why does civilianising and outsourcing benefit the troops?
7. Why do you think a company that makes a profit and whose primary responsibility is to its shareholders should be allowed within the main gate of any station?
8. Would you make any inquiry into the relationships with these companies and past/present senior officers?
9. Do you know what the corruption means?
10. Do you know what the term "too many chiefs and not enough indians means"?
11. JPA? WHY?
12. How will having a civil SAR force benefit the members of HM forces downed behind enemy lines?
13. How can you sleep at night given the problems with all three services?
14. Do you regret the "Train" comments given the vast spike in PVR's
15. Why has the BOI in to the Khandahar Nimrod taken soooooo long.
16. What is your thoughts on the critical mass personnel number of the RAF.
17. How ashamed are you of the care our injured troops recieve?

19. Are you aware that doing more with less has turned into everything with nothing?
20. Would you risk your pension on any of the above?
21. Is there a plan for conscription on the cards?
Pm me if you wish Mr Torpy (sp?)
Also you will notice the lack of respect due to the rank. Were I still serving I would pay the due compliment, but as a civvy I would not pi** on you or anyone at MOD if you were on fire. It is of my unhumble (and possibly wrong) opinion you have all sold the forces of this nation down the river.
