Sad news that General Sir Mike Jackson KCB CBE DSO has died.

An outstanding character, the soldier's soldier, and a mission driven individual.

Rest in peace, Sir. Your leadership, courage and steadfastness will never be forgotten. ⚔️🪂🇬🇧

My thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Engineer Sapper and his family who was mindlessly injured outside the RSME Brompton Barracks.

Having served there during my Artisan training with the Corps of Royal Engineers twice. Followed by living in the area for a further 15 years. I never would have thought this could possibly happen today.

Society is broken when those who serve and defend our country proudly cannot walk the streets wearing their uniform without running the risk of some misguided individual venting their uncontrollable anger needlessly.

Let’s come together in quiet contemplation for a moment and send your best wishes to the guys in the Corps of Royal Engineers and our wider military community who, like me, will be feeling tremendous sadness on receiving this news.

A man is held after a suspected murder attempt on a soldier in uniform near a Gillingham barracks.

Your Country Needs You!

Today is The Big Fight for Charity day.

I’m such a proud dad because my youngest son Conrad is fighting to raise funds for the military charity Transformation for Veterans.

He has been training extremely hard to get in shape for the UWCB boxing tournament at the Bowles Exhibition Centre in Manchester.

It would be outstanding if you could do your bit to boost his confidence by sponsoring him today and help him achieve, succeed and exceed his fundraising target.

As we draw to the end of the day. Remember today commemorates the 42nd anniversary of the Falklands War.

My thoughts and prayers are with those who lost their lives during or after as a consequence of that conflict.

Spare a moment too for those affected physically or psychologically by that war too.
