Firstly, I thank any and all that have served in uniform on my behalf and that of previous generations. Over three decades of public service, I have had the pleasure of working alongside colleagues who had previously served from Marines, Para's and the RN to name but a few.

Today we have remembered the fallen but also those still with us.

I take no pleasure in airing the below photos, however I believe Corbyn once again showed his true colours today. Pic on the left is from the 2018 ceremony and the one on the right is from today.

Last year he turned up wearing  a cheapo anorak complete with hood and the smallest Poppy pin badge. Today, it would seem his advisers steered him towards a more tactful attire. 

After placing his wreath, he appeared pained to lower his head in the usual manner to salute the Cenotaph.

I can honestly say I am disgusted by this man. May he never be entrusted to govern our nation.

Remember 2018, his second best George  car coat on & a red tie. He is the waste of a good skin, I think he was booed today?

My dad was a desert rat,the only time he spoke of the war was when he had a few beers,and it was only the bits he found funny,he died in 1988,l still miss him.

He must have had a few months staying in the Thetford forest at ickburgh. Not much remains of the old camp only a couple of buildings are left but loads of the concrete shed bases are still in the woods. It must have been a huge camp.
