Military and Veterans Hospital Petition.

This Petition was created by Denzil Connick and reads:- "We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Create a dedicated Military and Veterans Hospital within the UK." The Government does not want this petition to succeed and has quite cynically put a closing deadline of 19th August for this very important petition.
It is pointed out by Paul McMillen that 2 Para alone on this tour has sent back over 50 casualties to the UK and from one who has been to Selly Oak knows that many cannot be accommodated so when all the casualties from the other battle groups are added to the figure, how is ONE WARD in a NHS hospital going to cope? It cannot cope, the individual troops are sent home to recover relying on NHS visiting services which themselves are over committed.
I am sure that every member of our association will sign-up to this petition.

This PETITION is now CLOSED

The final count can be seen by using the direct link to PM Petitions website on the Links page.


Escort for Heros Petition.

This petition was submitted by Simon Lord and reads:-"The bodies of British Servicemen and women killed overseas are flown to Royal Air Force Lyneham.
The hearses carrying the bodies receive no special escort once they leave the county of Wiltshire, normally bound for the mortuary at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford.
It is an insult to these brave people and their families that their hearses should travel un-escorted on their journey through the country that these men and women served and died for.
The signatories to this petition request that the Ministry of Defence, in co-ordination with local Chief Constables, arrange for a formal escort for the bodies of all those servicemen and women. Unless the next-of-kin request otherwise".
The deadline of signing this petition is the 23rd October 2008.
Again I am sure that all members of our association will wish to sign this petition.

This PETITION is now CLOSED
