Taken from the Daily Mail, 12th November 2009.
As British soldiers die in Afghanistan for lack of vital equipment, penpushers at the MoD pocket £300million in bonuses.
The civil servants have seen good performance payments - including rewards for saving money - double. (Where have we heard that word before?)
The penpushers also won extra cash for hitting targets for promoting diversity and improving health and safety.
You will forgive me for saying this, but denying our gallant troops the necessary equipment to protect their lives, isn't exactly promoting health and safety, is it?
What brain dead moron thought that one up.
Cloud cuckoo land here we come.
