I am not a sheep, I have my own mind
I have had enough of being told what and how to think
Whilst we are still allowed the remnants of free speech,
I will speak out.
I also reserve the right to discuss less controversial matters should I feel the urge.

More helicopter news
The news that the six Merlin helicopters due to go to Helmand in December do not have Kevlar armour does not surprise me. The political imperative is to provide helicopters, so helicopters will be provided. So what if the helicopters are inadequately protected and could be the flying equivalent of snatch Land Rovers, why should the government care? It is enough that Gordon Brown will be able to get up and report that even more helicopters have been sent to Afghanistan and if some soldiers die or are horribly maimed, well that's too bad. When will people understand the priorities of this Labour government?
