For nearly 500 years the Royal Navy struggled on without a Veterans Minister. We have now been blessed with dozens of them with their expensive staffs and offices.
What have they achieved for us/we veterans?
1. A Veterans Badge. Worn on the lapel resembling a lesser Union Shop Steward. Numerous Veterans Ministers have been photographed pinning on--and will no doubt continuing glorifying in such occasions
2. A free phone line.
3. Still to come and even more exciting, a "V" on our driving licences to act as an Identity Card to show, clearly, we would have laid down our lives for our country.
Those without driving licences need not write in as a new card with a "V" on will be available.
If any of you have a War Pension card advising hospitals to provide priority treatment for its bearer's named disabilities, you will have prior experience of just how useless the new cards will be.
More money down the drain.
