Although Houghton’s comments could be seen as a challenge to the authority of an elected prime minister
Absolute nonsense! CDS was merely responding to a direct question.
I watched the whole interview with Murnahan and CDS responded to the questions eloquently and sensibly, with no political leaning at all. Would you have a CDS with no views at all?
At least the present CDS is prepared to offer a reasoned input while he is serving, rather that to tow the party line until retirement and then sound off ineffectually from the House of Lords like Stirrup, Danatt et al.
