Thousands of paratroopers who have just returned from Afghanistan face a pay cut of as much as 10 per cent as the Ministry of Defence attempts to save more money. Army chiefs have decided to end a supplement paid to each member of the regiment for parachuting. It is worth more than £2,000 a year.

Blue Labour and Cameron stabs our lads in the back once again , no money for our lads who are willing to lay down their lives for their Country but Billions for foreign aid to Countries that hate us and even harbour terrorists like Bin Laden.
