Hello All,
This thread is not a direct comparison with the skulduggery used by the M.O.D. but I wonder if the public at large will ever know the full cost of the 4 course meal taken by the EUROCRAT wasters at the last attempt to save the EURO. May be the full information to include waiters hangers on and the money the EUROCRATS were paid for this useless jaunt. And see if it can be compared to the treatment of the fallen and their dependants.

It is very bad when things like this occur. The 'Red tags' should have done something about this when it first came out and not let it go to the press and all, I know this has been done by civil servants, but they are governed by the military as to what they do. This is another case where soldiers who give their life or bodies being basically abused by the system. One question, how long has it been a practice to pay in advance.

The MOD are now saying they hope the letter sent to L/Cpl Bancrofts family did not cause any stress,
Are these idiots real or what,

It's a pity that the pen pushers can't be sent out there. As they say education is a wonderful thing!
