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.
