FALLEN HEROES BBC 1, EX SERVICEMEN MIS-TREATED

Wed Feb 09, 2011 9:54 pm

Anyone been watching, it winds me up to see ex servicemen living on the streets and not getting preferential treatment when they have put their lives on the line to serve their country.

Then we get foreigners coming over here from all parts of the world who have done f**k all for this country but they get accomodation and benfits to live on, well and truly pisses me off.

Anyone else feel the same way.

I was about to make a post about it.

They get f**k all, and have a good chance of f*cking their lives up because of PTSD.

A good quote from there was:

"It takes 6 months to turn a civilian to a soldier, yet the MOD believes it takes no time at all to turn a soldier into a civilian".

And then someone on my Facebook made a good point of the fact that 6 months is just for a BASIC soldier, without any kind of specialist training.

That was the guy from Newport who quoted that, but i totally agree with him, in a way its like they are used and then abused by the government, shocking treatment.

I feel the same Mark, but just goes to prove how inept our government really is and that we need to change certain policies ASAP. :evil:

Not trying to sound like a hippy or a terrorist but I think its time that the people from all around the world stood up and rised against the governments, all these governments do is make money for themselves. Such a shame. People in Britain would never rise against the governments, to idol...how ever I find it funny how the students are the ones who can be bothered, good on em.
