Thats my point PM, Harry isnt a "politicians" Son, the Royals have always served in the forces, didnt Andrew serve in the Falklands war as a Pilot...if my memory serves me right??
The royals annoy me, its good there in the forces, but how much bloody time off do they get for charity work, shouldnt be one rule for them and one rule for the other service men/women.
Thanks Scythe my Grandfather was dead for 30,758,400 minutes every fucking year because he fought for what is right. This is one of the problems. We don't appreciate the sacrifices made by others after the event. I think two minutes is hardly and issue.
No offence mean't to anyone
S13, what the heck is wrong with you????
With that one thoughtless statement, you have insulted 3 members of my family (who, as Commonwealth soldiers, fought alongside British soldiers in some very harrowing actions), 5 generations of NR's family, PM's son, several million service personnel (many of whom gave their all) and the UK in its entirety!!!!
By what right did you make such a statement????
HOW DARE YOU?????!!!!!
You are so very lucky to enjoy the peace in which you can comfortably make such insulting and flippant statements. A peace that you enjoy because several million service personnel made the ultimate sacrifice (and still do) so that YOU may sit in peace and not suffer under the jackboot of some fascist.
I, for one, am very offended and I think you owe everyone on the forum an apology. I feel no need to control my response to your treasonous outburst and you really are fortunate to enjoy annonymity on the forum. Many of us on here would happily have taken you out to the woodshed for some corrective treatment.
Is 2 minutes of your time too much to give ONCE in a WHOLE YEAR for so many who gave way more than you are ever likely to give for so great a cause that has given you peace and freedom??????
You really are disgusting.
Sorry the post didn't come up part from the bottom bit proberly best it never
my father served in the second world war in the Royal Artillery, my grandfather served in the first one...was an "old contemptable" and was awarded the Mons Star! i hope Scythe that you didnt mean it as it sounded....maybe you were trying to be humourous? and it didnt quite come off??
Considering you claim to be part of the scouts and cubs movement which every year take part in marches I've found your attitude deplorable and does make me wonder what possesed you to make such a statement and you don't even seem to have the balls to explain or apologise considering the amount of people on this forum you have upset
s13 i think you need to explain your remarks and (clear this lot up pal) sooner rather than later
