Hi John,

A PS ... to turn the into a !

Radio Solent had a major impact where it mattered - the broadcasts inspired major support in Parliament, and that is the only place where this matter can be resolved now. Sandra Gidley took part in the programs and she is still on our case. Only yesterday I received an email from Brianbart, a constituent. You can read it at http://www.fight4thepjm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=13667#13667.

As far as the campaign is concerned, there is a lot going on behind the scenes. MPs like Sandra are lobbying, Don Touhig is going to ask for a debate in the Commons. Individual supporters are questioning what has happened and writing letters to their MPs. The Conservatives have re-confirmed their intention to review the Foreign Decorations Rules. I have never been so busy. I am more comfortable now that we shall win a public acknowledgement of what we already know ... that we have the right to wear the PJM.

All the best,

Barry

Some of you-know-whose voice sounds weird. Well .... no ... it's not him this time. Radio Solent called him while he was fighting another battle - from his car in the London traffic (hands-free and safely, natch!) .

Our thanks to John in Oz for this recording. Copyright belongs to the BBC who, I am sure, will have no problems with us making it available here.
