Support for Battle of Britain Flight

Postby Bruce Bird » January 28th, 2010, 2:41 pm

I've just received an appeal from a relative of one of 'the Few' asking for support for the Battle of Britain Flight.

There's a petition on the No 10 site which LMA membere might like to consider.

See: http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/BBMFCuts/

The petition reads:

We the undersigned Petition the Prime Minister to Ensure that the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight is not axed in any defence cuts It has been suggested that the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight (BBMF) - which celebrates the sacrifice of those who flew during the 2nd World War - will be cut in the next round of defence cuts. This will be a travesty if it was to go ahead.

The BBMF is said to cost a mere £3m a year, less than 0.1% of the defence budget.

It is a great delight for all who see their displays, and, if closed, the memory of 'The Few' will be lost. Please vote to ensure that the BBMF is not closed. Simply click on the link above, fill in the form and then pass this on.

The BBMF means so much to so many people in so many different ways.

Done. Typical of this government waste money left right and centre, then make cuts to the parts that made Britain great, not to mention the memory of all those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

There is no evidence to say that it is happening, but no harm reinforcing our point!
