SIR - The BBC's recent Power to the People showed the contempt with which politicians treat ex-service personnel.
To speak to medical staff, the presenter had to be accompanied by a woman from the Ministry of Defence.
What on eye-opener. "You can't say this", "you can't say that", "you mustn't do that", we can only imagine what orders she barked out off camera.
We're clearly on the way to a fascist state.
Serving and ex-service personnel who vote Labour at the next election deserve the contempt they'll be shown after.
As for the Tories, my 15 years service showed that they'll treat you a little better when you're in - no better when you're out.
John Profumo was the best the ordinary squaddie we ever had. The establishment fired him.
