You're Top Poster: #5   | Disgraceful Behaviour For man centuries the British Army has had members from all over the world. But now a recent news report has shown how those foriegn and commonwealth soliders will be treated in times of injury and hardship. I, for one, utterly condem the actions of the officals involved and see their enforcing of the various laws as reducing them to mere "Jobsworths"!  http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7059170.stm

You're Top Poster: #1  | Once again, the government shows its true hand - by their actions they are labelling these men mercenaries-by-default. They do not believe that these men have a role or contribution to to make to British society, except DIE FOR IT. So my advice to all who have mistakenly shown some misguided allegiance to this country - stay at home and live a long and peaceful life. You will not receive any rewards for your loyalty.

You're Top Poster: #3  | This is disgraceful. No two way streets in Britain so it seems.

You chose dishonor and you will have war." (Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.) What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts?

You're Top Poster: #9 | In the meantime our politicians, in addition to ensuring their own salary increases and protected pensions, now propose even longer holidays! Got our priorities right n'est pas? CTNana |
