Not real Karma tho as the thieving pikey cnut gets to walk away with a pension the size of Bournemouth and no doubt the sort of loyalty he has just shown is just what big business will be queueing up to court

A corrupt, self-serving grey suit who paradoxically presided over the funding and direction of many thousands of real people who exhibit all the qualities he appears (in the media at least) to lack: charisma, bravery, grit, integrity, honesty and pureness of purpose. The question is: will Dr Fox do a better job than GH and his successors?
"Mildly" Eccentric Stardriver
The rot lies further up the tree than GH. How many Defence Ministers have you guys had in the last ten years or so? Symptomatic of what the present government thinks of its armed forces.

Not for nothing is he known as 'Buff' Hoon.
His performance this morning on BBC Radio Fours' 'Today' program was shameless and utterly cringeworthy.
In fact, it was a useful illustration (and Hoon dimwittedly played his part) of what a shameless bunch of tw@ts our politicians are.
What will it take for proper service to be resumed?

ISTR that from my time in the RAF, that if more than 5 peeps gather to "discuss" something, it could be classed as mutiny.......or is that an urban myth? 
Otherwise, sign me up for the revolution

Having heard him, the pompous prick was only sorry he got set up.
Another point, shouldn't Knacker of the Yard be looking at this latest bunch of scum for trying to obtain financial gain unlawfully? I'm sure that there is a specific offence to cover this shower of ****es.

Folks need to read/listen to Buff's words gain, very carefully - at no point does he actually apologise for his dishonesty. He is only sorry for having been caught doing it, and is embarrassed at that the details being made public. I repeat, he is not apologising for being dishonest. Pathetic, spineless wimp ..... but that seems to be the type attracted to the House Of Commons now. It is a great, big iniquitous cavern full of two-faced, cheating, thieving chimps whose major intent is to rob the tax-payer blind by playing the system, generate a massive pension which they themselves set and vote for, and to then conduct shady deals once their 'time' is over.
And the UK still thinks it has a democracy?
Wyler,
I recall his visit to the Falklands, and I may have been involved in getting him to the South American mainland at the conclusion of that visit.

Hope he rots
Mr B,
We must have been in MPA at the same time, because I launched in Albert to rescue you in Montevideo - spoilers, slats knackered? Anyway, had the misfortune to meet him at the XV 179 repatriation. Self-serving, arrogant, deceitful, shoe-staring, disinterested, 24 carat, ocean going prick of a bloke. I would rather be stuck in a lift with Bin Laden that this chodder.
I hope he does porridge and that they put him in a wing with even uglier blokes than himself - that way, in the showers he'll look like Marilyn Monroe.

Having listened this morning to our glorious leader's "pledges" I think your colourful description could, or maybe should, be expanded to include the whole sorry mob posing as Government.
OK, back to my fence now.
R SCANDAL,
It might have been a double hydraulic system failure on start-up (fluid pissing all over the place ...... allegedly). But we must be talking about a different event, because Buff went to Santiago, Chile (definitely!) which is where the aircraft shat itself all over the pan.

MrB - that wasn't the memorable incident when JC was the navigator, was it?
JC (SF Herk peeps probably know this) had an 'individual' nature which probably wouldn't have identified him as a 'VIP' crewmember.....
One day, they have to take BuffHoon somewhere. He bounds on board, then sticks his face onto the flight deck. JC is in typically 'relaxed' form, slouched sideways across the nav's seat with his feet resting on the jump seat.
Buff glares at him and splutters "Don't make any effort, will you?"
JC looks up in a surprise and announces "Well, since you put it like that, no I won't!"
At which point Buff stomps off the flight deck and the captain has his head in his hands....
"Who the f*** was that wa**er?", asks JC of the rest of the crew, who are all pi$$ing themselves with laughter.
Clearly not up on his MP-recce, was JC. BŁoody amusing chap, though - is he still in the mob?
I always thought BuffHoon was the spitting image of a minor childrens' comedian by the name of Freddy 'Parrot Face' Davis:

All politicians are thieves & liars, that's why they are politicians.
Sorry, but when the man (JH) visted us twice on deloyed ops, any potential trouble maker was left off the parade and the hierarchy stated he was doing a wonderful job.
wasted 20 minutes of my life briefing this guy in the Falklands in 2000.
Complete and utter Knob.
