parliamentary information office: It takes the biscuit when the likes of Baroness Warsi is wheeled out to spout unctuous tripe like this.
And quite frankly statements like :
"That is a message that will rain on the parade of extremists: both the preachers of hate, who burn poppies as a vile protest against the West, and the far Right, who hijack the patriotism of Remembrance Sunday by trying suppress its messages of tolerance and freedom by making the event a divisive, whites-only moment."
Are totally unnecessary and inappropriate in the context of Remembrance Sunday. The Baroness and all her fellow travellers with chips on both shoulders should not be allowed to hijack the occasion to make their puerile points. There is a time and place for such comments and Remembrance Sunday is NOT that time.
parliamentary information office: Warsi's government completed what the German Army could not. The utter demoralisation of the British Armed Forces; who within one term of Cameron's catastrophic government have been hollowed out and would take at least a generation to correct, as the trust has gone.
We have slipped beneath the waves, thanks to the shallow analysis of airhead Dave and using defence funds to expand the vanity department of DFID for his erstwhile Rasputin, Mitchell.
The detoxification of the Tories was considered more important than national security and it still backfired when that objectionable bully Mitchell showed his true colours.
parliamentary information office: "those who fought for our freedoms nearly a century ago."
Most if not all believed that is what they were fighting for, and they fought in terrible conditions with unstinting bravery and gallantry.
But nonetheless they were wastefully sacrificed for no useful purpose by the insane folly of politicians and generals.
That is what we should remember about the Great War while we commemorate the men who fought in it.
Especially when, as like here, dodgy politicians are still mouthing platitudes about 'our freedoms',
parliamentary information office: Calling an end to WW1 meant France, Britain and Germany would not go the way of Russia. That is why the conflict, that should never have happened, ended.
My memories are of veterans, family and men alive and maimed 60 years after the event, living out their final years at the BLESMA home.
Was the war worth it, was it xyz.
