The Biggest Insult To Our Troops


I awoke this morn to learn that this 'coalition' government has decided to 'secretly' sack soldiers as they fight on the front-line. They are planning to axe some soldiers whilst they are out fighting in Afghanistan (a pointless war if I must point out), and they will only be told when they return home.

Though I am not a war supporter, I support those that protect this country, and to hear the bull that the gov plans to do is just sickening. These brave people give their lives to protect our country, and to hear the utter betrayal that is going to happen angers me. Whilst there are fund-raising events such as last nights Heroes Concert, that pay homage to those that give their lives to keep our country 'free'; the gov claim that they are doing this to cut costs, but its obvious that there are not enough funds in defence.

There is already not enough support given to soldiers after they return from war, so this is the biggest insult to them.

The whole situation just angers and sickens me. First the UK Film Council, now the Soldiers, what next are they planning on axing the NHS???
