HOUSE OF COMMONS
LONDON SW1A OAA
Mr Bob Rankin
Chairman
Stoke-on-Trent No. 2 Group
Royal British Legion in North Staffordshire
Newcastle-under-Lyme
AH/PF
18th September, 2007
Dear Bob
Thank you for your e-mails regarding the Royal British
Legion's 'Military Covenant' campaign and I appreciate and
understand your concerns.
The Royal British Legion helps raise much-needed money and
offers valuable support to veterans and their families and
also safeguards the memory of ex-Service personnel.
I have recently witnessed this at first hand as I was
closely involved with the 'Shot at Dawn' campaign which has
now seen 300 soldiers, who were shot for military offences
during World War I, receive full formal pardons.
Clearly, therefore, I support any campaign that aims to help
to those who have fought, or lost loved ones, in conflicts
around the world and I will continue to do all I can to
support the Legion in Parliament.
Best wishes and kind regards
Paul Farrelly*
Member of Parliament for Newcastle-under-Lyme
*Footnote [Bob Rankin]:
In the original letter Paul Farrelly MP has added in his own
hand writing to raise the points mentioned in my
email to him specifically with the Armed Forces
Minister Bob Ainsworth.
