This makes my blood boil.
Well this is just another example of the government sticking two fingers up at our Armed Forces. It beggars belief!!
It seems that Honorable Members of the mother of all parliaments have granted themselves £7000 a year postage allowance but have decided to close the British Forces Post Office in Europe
A quote from Sky News: - "When the servicemen and women of our country are fighting and dying for this government's dubious honour, it treats them with the contempt it has shown across the board," he said.
"The BFPO has for decades provided a lifeline that is utterly vital in maintaining moral and now they want to cut it.
"MPs have granted themselves £7,000; a year, postage but they seem to be happy to put extra costs on service families.
How typical: How venal: How vile?"

The Palace of Westminster will not have a Nativity Scene this Christmas - not because it would upset the other cultures, they couldn't find Three Wise Men.
