I have always felt that the Armed Forces should be allocated a number of MPs. With a mobile population, many of whom serve abroad with their families, it makes no sense voting for a geographical representative who won't represent you for long. Two dedicated MPs for each Service would do a much better job and would negate the need for an ombudsman with fewer powers and less influence.
