Folks - with Purdah there is no defence select committee - so the IDA are influencing defence focused politicians from all parties, working to talk
to the Labour potential front bench team & engaging into the MoD - we wait the new team of what ever flavour

Former members of the Red Arrows describe a “toxic culture” of predatory & bullying behaviour that’s destroyed lives. In a @SkyNews documentary, they also raise concerns about flight safety & dismiss an internal inquiry as a travesty of justice ⬇️

How many committees must insist MoD change its processes before Government actually mandates change? @BWallaceMP @IDA_UKDefence

It is so sad, the need for the @IDA_UKDefence is epic.
I have RAF mates sharing so many issues, with them left stranded and feeling helpless.
The problem is that until people are charged, demoted the cover up culture will continue.
There is no Integrity, the guilty are protected!

The military people deserve better than this. Retention problems now a rising issue. Time for a service persons watchdog. #forewarned @IDA_UKDefence portsmouth.co.uk/news/people…

So the IDA approached @JohnnyMercerUK in his new role for a meeting to discus ways of helping him develop better support for Veterans, unfortunately the response was "there are competing demands on the Minister's time and so I am afraid that he is unable to meet"

My experience resonates entirely. Asked for help, after exposure to some very horrific events (while flying operationally) - was sidelined, sacked then told my injuries are genetic and personality failings (after 22 years service)….best country in the world to be a veteran???
