I still can't believe this happened the day after being told this experience first hand.
It leads in to a line that I heard from a couple of correspondents on "Any Answers" on Radio Four just now. The discussion included the Peterborough uniform story - sadly I missed "Any Questions".
The point is, the correspondents said that the core issue was being missed. Who are the people shouting the abuse? Who are they that hate the Armed Forces so much - despite the freedoms the AF brought them?
There were no accusatory fingers pointed, but the average listener could quite easily read between the lines.
If symbols of our freedoms are so abused, categorised as taunting and racist, then we are, indeed, in a very sorry state.
