BFBS MILITARY DEBATE
Myself and another member of the campaign team went to London on Tuesday the 13th April, to debate issues affecting service personnel, their family members and our veterans. We would have preferred a more informal debate and for those ministers attending, to stay behind to discuss the issues raised by Bereaved Parents, Charities Groups and Campaign Organisations like ourselves. No sooner had the cameras stopped, did they run for the exit. I don't believe Bob Ainsworth MP, expected my friend and fellow member of the campaign team to chase after him...But Roy, not one to stand on ceremony or allow a good opportunity to pass by, pounced and blocked the exit. Mr Bob was in shock whilst Roy hit him with question after question. This all lasted about 2 minutes and by the time I got there, Roy looked happy with what he had just achieved. Well done matey. Please view the full debate in the links below. I managed to get one question in at part 4 of the debate. The interesting thing here is; Look at the faces of the MPs and their body language....To me it says "we have no answers to your question but we will say anything to get elected". All we ask for is Military Hospitals / Treatment Centres to be put in place and allow veterans to get their treatment at these centres...Please view the debate on youtube be aware there are 5 parts to the debate lasting about 30 minutes in total.
