I know that a serving officer is not allowed to stand...nor would they.
The rumours going round Westminster do not concern me.
Serving in a theatre of war on active service to defeat terrorists under whatever umbrella, is an act act of loyalty to the crown, and our armed forces have to be praised for that.
I do not agree that our forces should be deployed in these godforsaken places and pray for the day when they come home safe and sound.
Your Nephew is in Iraq to make sure that on his return to this country, he has a safe haven in which to live in peace.
I would go for our troops out tomorrow but that is not to be.
I too have been on active service...and it scared the **** out of me.
