Instructors that do this should be RTU'd from training establishments. They are there to teach those coming through not record their errors and post online for a cheap laugh. Put your phone away and send them leopard crawling.

I understand @lewis_goodall questioning @JohnHealey_MP on why the person at the centre of the Afghan data leak is still employed by the MOD but it sits uneasy with me. Here's why I think it is entirely right that they are still employed. (Link in the first comment).

Hi @kirbyestate I am heading down on behalf of the @Daily_Express to cover the problems you have had recently with flags being cut down and to speak to residents ahead of the game tomorrow. Would be great to get in touch with any residents who will be around!.

The government has serverely underestimated the strength of feeling amongst veterans. Conservative sources believe it is a policy “built on sand” and driven by Lord Hermer.
As MPs debate Northern Ireland veterans, it is the biggest turnout I have seen for a Westminster Hall debate. Gallery packed with berets.

The treatment of the families of those lost on the Mull of Kintyre is nothing short of a national embarrassment.

The personal side of politics we rarely see, although we should hold off speculating on why she was crying. MPs should be held to the highest level of scrutiny but we must also remember that they are people, the majority of whom are in politics for the right reasons.
A tear just rolled down the Chancellor’s cheek at #PMQs as the PM refuses to answer whether or not she’ll stay in her job. Hayfever, or something else?

It was great to chat all things defence after a hectic week with @LizzyBuchan and @christiancalgie yesterday.
