Right, it is stories like this that really make me so fed up with the UK.
ReplyDeleteA man joins the army in good faith to fight a fake war, comes back home without a leg which is replaced by a prosthetic leg and he is denied a disabled badge.

These soldiers risk LIFE and LIMB and they can't even get a measly disabled badge, this stuff is just SHOCKING.
Some of these idiots sit in their office and make the most STUPID decisions that affects people's lives. I'm not even sure anymore if they are actually human, because they don't behave like it.
