The Labour Government has treated our armed forces appallingly for far too long. After General Sir Richard Dannatt, the retiring Chief of the General Staff, last week said that Whitehall was not properly focused on supporting the British mission in Afghanistan, it became clear that something needed to be done, and fast.
David Cameron’s proposal for a Minister for Afghanistan would prove to our armed forces that Conservative Government takes their role seriously and is behind them 100%. After all, these are the men and women that put their lives on the line for our freedom. For too long Gordon Brown has wasted money on non-jobs and red-tape in Whitehall when he could have been investing in protecting our heros.
Labour will not stick up for our armed forces and it’s time for this to change.
