Rd to Damascus.
GLOman, old mate. No criticism intended with my bullit-point of yesterday, just singin' the old refrain as we march along in step.......
Mike.

Corrupt Whitehall Official
He will need that £1.5M to buy his peerage when he gets out of jail... a sort of get out of jail card.
I refer to my original letter to Emporor Aartone, when I described the rotten Government as a role model for the young, then it is little wonder that they turn out the same. After all, always follow the example of your betters.... Yeah right! I don't think!
Yours now following the Government's example... here's my fifty quid... now where is my knighthood.
(Sir) Arthur of Brandon... got a nice ring to it don't you think?

Profiteering
I didn't think that MoD was ever supposed to make a profit. Ok! I admit with a little bit of pillaging and plundering, there's no way it is ever going to recoup its expenditure.
Yours S126'd

Re Road to Damascus
Jock wrote "While I find GLOman's tongue in cheek allegory of Saul's journey to Damascus quite fascinating, I cannot help but assume that those MoD, FCO, Cabinet Office and HD Committee officials with whom we have dealt are firmly committed to a stringently literal interpretation of a very different, small and select, portion of the Scriptures....that of Luke 19:26
Which says:
" For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him." "
See the following in The Daily Mail:
Shocked war veterans have been told they must hand back £1.7 million of their pensions after the Ministry of Defence admitted they had been overpaid.
Officials confessed that almost 100 armed forces veterans had received pension overpayments every month due to a bureaucratic error.
The mistake emerged in a review of 49,000 Armed Forces Pension Scheme files.

It's a great idea.

ROAD TO DAMASCUS
Reply from Sally Keeble MP. I would have thought a question to the Foreign Minister would be more effective since she had received a reply from Meg Munn. However, has she said , it will keep the pot boiling - WELL DONE SALLY!
