Scripture, Kipling and hymn - jolly well done. Good article too, the phenomenon of the FORCES MP reminds me of poppy tat and gash Amazon hoodies with "VETERAN" written on them which became popular around the time of late HERRICK and have continued since. Thanks also for pointing out that Mordaunt couldn't get through RNR training the useless bint.
Dan Jarvis was elected in a by election in the 10-15 parliament (not 2005) and Tobias Elwood can’t be ‘easily one of the least intelligent men in Parliament’ as he is no longer in Parliament.
The reason these MPs stress their military background is pretty obvious - we live in an age where personal political brand (backstory) is supposed to be important, and it impresses the media.
The public probably wants a left populist who kills people so PM Carns with Miliband running the economy is the unbeatable combo.
