David pledges to "do his bit" for British Armed Forces
David Amess, MP for Southend West, has pledged to do his bit for the British Armed Forces family.
David Amess made the pledge on The Royal British Legion’s campaign website, www.timetodoyourbit.org.uk.
The website also features the charity’s general election manifesto, which sets out priorities for the next Government to improve conditions for Service Personnel and their families, the bereaved, veterans and dependants.
Kevin Shinkwin, the Legion’s Head of Public Affairs, said, “We’re really grateful to David Amess for pledging to do his bit. The entire Armed Forces family needs the support of politicians from all parties, and our manifesto outlines practical ways the next government can help. We hope all the parties will give it serious consideration and that every MP will pledge to do their bit”.
