D-Day Veteran Appalled By Nation He Sacrificed All For

[Borg Refinery]

If you're referring to me as a political tub thumper, not only do I not agree with GB News' message (as specified in OP body), but I don't agree with the Tories, Reform etc so as usual, you're barking up the wrong tree

The fact is this D-Day vet feels unsafe in his own home due to yobs up the road terrorizing people, those were his own words and that is wrong, whoever's in power, whoever does/doesn't do anything about it

The fact is that he shouldn't feel like that, and I wouldn't want to be the one to look like Emily Thornberry and patronise normal people as elite/metro/snobby libs often love to do. But carry on, I'm sure Lab will get re-elected next time.

Very sad. 

The lack of effective policing allows political tub-thumpers, and the Hang-em and Flog-em Right-Wing news media, to exaggerate every scrap of villainy and turn it into a constant barrage of bad reports.

It's understandable if some frail and elderly are affected and get nervous...

GB News

We all know GB News is a poor source, but the interview with the veteran Les Underwood and the other guy  - who helped veterans' charities - struck me, regardless of the source, the D-Day veteran's words speak for themselves.

Salute to him and their bravery
