Afghanistan betrayal

As billions upon billions of our money is poured into the bulging pockets of bankers and while MPs steal from the very people they have pledged to serve, our troops, the best trained and still the best performing of any nation, are starved of the cash and equipment they need just to do their jobs. Unlike fat cats, our forces are not in it for themselves; they are in it for us. Selflessness on this level always leads to governments, concerned only with personal power and enrichment, to betray Britain's armies and their ultimate sacrifices. Despite this, our young men will continue to grit their teeth and stand tall. These are the same men who stood against impossible odds at Agincourt, faced down the cannons' slaughter at Waterloo; crossed the open beaches on D-day; held out on the hills of Korea; and yomped to Falklands victory after the loss of Atlantic Conveyor. This is the determined Bulldog spirit celebrated around the world that no mealy-mouthed, incompetent government can ever take away. Our everyday heroes will prevail.
