Military pilots realise that many civilian pilots are top notch at what they do, and do many different things that military pilots have never experienced (and may not have a desire to do).
And the same for what civilian pilots think of military guys. I've been both.
There are also some bad apples on both sides of the fence.

One area I suspect they both agree on is the need to keep as much airspace as possible in the UK as Class G (or at least prevent it being to turned into the various classes of controlled airspace).
