Hard to imagine that a DFO could be worse and more despised than the likes of Clemmow and Barley but the present incumbent has actually managed that. Only thing that he has Managed, mind you, except repeatedly defending the indefensible and 'spinning' truly woeful Leadership of a potentially valuable group of essential employees (ie The Aircrew). Even harder to accept that he was quite a good man years ago but has let his ambition lead the way and has lost any sense of integrity or honour. In war time, he'd be in the dock for treason!
