I am sure I have read reports of our MOD paying for breast implants for UK servicewomen. In the interests of equality surely they should also pay for penis enlargement surgery for males in the forces. Who paid for Mike jacksons facial surgery?

ReplyDeleteUnbelievable. No employer should pay for cosmetic surgery unless it's needed to correct a gross deformity or an injury.
ReplyDeleteWomen shouldn't be allowed into the armed forces because it increases costs, creates distraction (pregnancy, sexual harassment, adultery, etc.), and is not a significant source of recruitment. It offends our pc-conditioned sensibilities to hear this, but it's indisputable.
This is such a complete non-story.

And one swallow does not a summer make. Typical anti-public sector tosh from a paper that should know better.
