After seeing a comment from another poster it made me think how the labour leader, who believes he will PM in a few short months, would have better spent his time showing support and respect for our armed forces and all they do for this country by attending one of their events on armed Forces Day. Instead he chose to attend Glastonberry where he was made to feel like a God. Or should we have expected no more than we got from a man who defended the non-deportation of British home-grown ISIS terrorists on return to Britain after their killing spree.

Shame he was booked at Glastonbury for months in advance and was only invited to the Armed Forces event yesterday morning then, isn't it
But this is the same press who tried to criticise him by calling him disrespectful for "doing a jig" at a memorial event when he was literally just walking in a straight line, so I'm not exactly surprised |

Disgraceful disrespect really.
But then when it comes to our armed forces I expect no different from Corbyn. |

Are you presuming there are no future, serving or ex servicemen/women at Glastonbury?
Here is a good article I agree with these sentiments, ' "When people think of the great Labour government of 1945, they rightly remember its many achievements like creating the NHS. But what is often forgotten is that it was a government forged by war. Clem Atlee and other senior figures had served with Winston Churchill in the national government and were veterans of the First World War. Younger MPs were returning from action on the frontline in the war against fascism. "Labour was a party that stood for our armed forces partly because it was a party made of people who had served their country in war. That generation of soldier MPs worked in parliament until the 1980s and their spirit is one that the modern-day Labour Party must try to recapture. Because the sad truth is that there is a creeping sense in the country that Labour is losing the trust of our armed forces." The conservatives for decades have not only failed but shown contempt for ex service personnel with cuts in disability welfare and mental health services, do you really think that standing in Liverpool or wherever for half an hour once a year is honouring serving or ex personnel? It's a sham, an empty gesture ... An insult. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/774...forces-Trident

No, another pointless exercise.
It's all very well attending Forces events,action is far better and after the way this govt has cut the armed forces rather hypocritical too. Just sadly another unnecessary very cheap jibe in my opinion. Reaching out on social injustices,of which many past Soldiers are having done to them now and reaching multi thousands of people, a far better way forward. |

I think its completely disrespectful her going considering the cuts theyve made. I'd imagine she'd get a similar reaction at a police/teachers/nhs event. This event was overshadowed by her negative presence and thats such a shame.
