Fantastic Effort! to a worthy cause, done.

However, it strikes me that this 'shouldn't' be required! Is it me, or does this highlight the dismal treatment of our proud and brave veterans generally?

More long-term, since niether the Gov or the British public, really want to support our folks, how would all serving members of all forces feel about giving up just 1 days pay to support a charity for this kind of case?

If anything could corner the Gov. , that would. Personally, I would.

In these times, a days pay, for helping our brave, is a very small price to pay. Pity the Hon Member for Scotland doesn't see it that way.

Finally, I think globally, that we should NEVER refer to him as Def Sec, only by his PRIMARY TITLE. (In the style of the 'B' word)

Only a mild rant, keep safe,

Advo
