Armed Forces Day

Not a snowballs chance in hell.
There's no way the lentil knitting brigade will allow this.
It’s got to offend some section of society.
There’d be so much policing required (at £££lots of overtime per bobby), it would end up costing more than it would to buy some Kevlar etc.
A day like this could serve as a platform for the loonies to try and wreak havoc.
The British public should show their appreciation in the ballot boxes (well, if there were a party worth voting for), or by flying the flag - if that were not frowned upon in certain communities.
Is the nation doomed? Is Great Britain ‘Great’ anymore?
I’ll continue my support with annual donations to the RBL and the RAFA.
Not much in the grand scheme of things I know, but it’s my way of showing support.
I’m not sure how a ‘forces day’ would be any better, unless it’s a public holiday! (Not that that would be any good to me anymore).
