    The LibDems have said many times that they will show fairness to pensioners.  Of the one million British state pensioners who are living abroad in retirement, 500,000 have their pensions indexed as promised, BUT the other 500,000 have their pensions frozen.  Will the LibDems press parliament to make sure that ALL British state pensioners receive the indexed pension they paid for when they and their employers contributed regular payments to the National Insurance Fund?  Surely where they live in retirement is totally irrelevant!"

    The whole country see's defence as a hugely important issue yet foreign aid will be protected in spending terms and would apparently be more important than the defence of theUnited Kingdom.

  1. skintboymike is asking Liam Fox: "Will our operational commitments be reduced, or will the defence budget be increased to account for the operational effort we are currently sustaining? To carry on as we are is unsustainable."

Show more »"In the remarks on Arrse the Conservative position is to have  an SDR as soon as possible and to run at the same time a restructuring of MoD and defence Procurement.  Would it not be sensible to wait the outcome of the SDR so that we have the Defence Procurement that is required and the Ministry of Defence organised to properly fit the requirements of the Forces.  It would seem that MoD restructuring along with Defence Procurement changes would mean that the SDR would have to be tailored to meet these requirements rather than actual defence requirements."

Show more »"Why is the Shadow Minister so hostile to the MOD Civil Service? Does he understand how concerned many military and civilian staff are at his efforts to portray the MOD CS as an enemy to HM Forces (as seen at the last conference). This constant belittling of MOD CS staff is divisive, and insulting to the thousands of staff who have volunteered and served in operational theatres. It is also insulting to those who make huge efforts to support Defence, and that his portrayal of an organisation of desk bound bureaucrats is utterly false. Does he realise that less than 2.5% of MOD CS staff work in London, and the majority are industrial or other workers who exist to do the essential jobs in Defence, without which the armed forces could not function? Does he understand that making major cuts to the MOD CS will harm Defence as a whole? " Show less »

    Why in the Tories national security strategy paper, does the party advocate the formation of a permanent joint headquarters style organisation to handle UK operations, including MACA and terrorism? Such an organisation has been in existence for nearly 10 years, and is called HQ Standing Joint Commander (UK). It is a purple organisation, based at HQ Land, and exists to do exactly this sort of job. Doesn’t the Shadow Minister think it is odd to put forward a policy to do something that already exists?
