Lancsmade, What I would Like To know is, Why Should a British Soldier in his own Country Be Unsafe Wearing His Uniform?.To me Its a disgrace and an Insult to them. **M**.

I'd rather be insulted than shot at or bombed by Irish terrorists, Merlin. That's why the ruling came in.

Good letter, well done.

It is too easy to forget that discrimination works both ways. I'm just waiting for it to blow up in the face of the PC brigade - will serve them right.

I think it's an odd situation. On one hand you have councils, governments etc making rulings to prevent things in case they cause offence to a group/faith/nationality etc that wasn't even slightly offended to start with.

Then again, you have the other extreme where people look for discrimination where it doesn't exist. At the supermarket where I used to work an Asian customer tried to sue the shop because he left his car in the car park longer than the maximum time and got a ticket, so he claimed racial discrimination. The car par attendant didn't have a clue what race he was from, just that he'd gone past the hour.
